A warm debate is in full swing. The followers of nationalist secular thought are busy in glorifying Bacha Khan whereas the followers of Mulana Syed Mudodi are defending their political thought. Both are based on hatred towards each others. The secular nationalists maintain that the state has adopted Mudodi's philosophy, with patronage from former dictator Zia Ul Haq, which in turn gave the evils of terrorism, anarchism and polarization of the society. The followers of Syed Mudodi insist that their thought is away of this, and that the state has never adopted their thought, if it had adopted, Pakistan would have been out of crisis today. Both have strong reasons behind their claims on primary basis, but misunderstandings can be seen clearly.
The way, in which the so called secular and liberals have abused their religious counterparts, makes it concluded for a person that Pakistan has been so for ruled by the religious leadership, bringing crisis and disorder. The fact is, that no popular religious leadership has so far been in absolute power. Similarly no popularly elected secular and liberal party, truly committed to the teachings of secular and liberal thought have been in power, since inception. Where lies the state, in terms of ideological orientations?
No registered party, whether religious or secular, is allowed to go inside the parliament against the constitutional terms. The constitution has bounded them to believe in the ideological basis of this country, a basis although constitutionally guarded but never defined in terms of ground realities. Who ruled this country when there was no constitution for the first nine years? What political name did all the dictators used to save their dictatorship disguised in democracy? Who have created a strong foothold through use of their capitalistic power disguised in the form of a political party, who is always favorite to be popularly elected? What is their back ground? Where does the very inception lies? What has been their political thought? Here is no room for naked conversation otherwise many decorated figures would go down naked from history.
One should believe in reality, which always taste bitter. The BAYANIA of this state, is to give democracy in the light of Two Nations Theory. Democracy and Two Nations Theory, a theory which divides nations along lines of hatred. In this state, your democracy is debated for hatred against a nation which is said to be a teaser for us. This ideology, making you today to cause Indo Pakistani split. To cause Pakistani-Iranian split. Pakistani Afghani Split. A bit of time is needed and hatred against China may get precipitated in the name of Sinkiang's Muslims. The only option left to deal is the southern Arabian sea, which awaits our drowning. This is ideology. This is our state's orientation. Where hatred is constitutionally promoted. It cannot be denied that Conflicts among nations have been there, but is it wise to constitutionally promote it to generations? Your state's Bayania is to teach you that only you are Muslim with all of your prejudices. India is your natural enemy, Afghanistan and Iran are pro Indian so deserve equal hatred from us. There must be a loyal to us Muslim ruling inside these countries, no matter how cunning, how prejudiced and how hypocrite we are. Because our Two Nations Theory needs it.
Back to initial point, it is now for those who want to evaluate state's position. Those who maintain that this constitutional basis is right, are either directly or indirectly in favor of State's declaration.
