Go India Go!!!
After Australia we all hope India Hits it hard to Pakistan!!! (and that too below the belt)...
Well any news channel you tune into - everybody is showcasing what Indian cricket team has to do without fail... Almost echoing the sentiment - "World cup nahi laye to chalega, but Pakistan ko harana compulsory hai"
I too as a true Indian resound this sentiment...Even I want to see Pakistan lose...
This is almost a pseudo war under the pretext of gentlemen's game - Cricket!!
Each and every soul on either side of the two countries are praying for victory, because this is almost "Izzat ka sawaal!!!"
Well i need not say about how long has this been going on - The partition of Undivided India lead to germination of this love-hate(read HATE ONLY) relationship... Mountbatten by no means could have imagined that what he and his colleague are creating will give all of us a reason to face this animosity and anti-fraternity feeling for the country on the other side of LOC...
Mentioning about the border, it is worthwhile to mention Mr Cyril Radcliff.
Radcliffe was given the chairmanship of the two boundary committees set up with the passing of the Indian Independence Act. That is in short based on the religious majority of a village he divided the land mass as India and Pakistan...
Radcliffe's report was submitted (the partition map) in August 1947 and Pakistan and India were divided and declared as independent nations...
So today if we are cheering for India, its thanks to Mr Radcliff... He using his mastery of quantitative skills actually ripped apart a portion of India and the consequences are known to all... Millions of refugees were displaced without any support and aid; while thousands lost thier lives to anti-social elements or natural forces...
The Radcliff Line was drawn as below
So all thanks to Mr Radcliff(well not really thank, millions lost lives due to him), we have one more reason to rejoice and bring excitement to our lives in 21st century....But all said and Done... the reality of the whole situation is as it is - We want to WIN... Come what may!!!
Pakistan stands no chance!!!
So GO India Go.... baja de chutki dhul chata de... De Ghumaake
