دہلی سلطنت کےدوران پنجاب کتنابڑا تھا؟
لفظ "پنجاب" (پنجاب) فارسی کےدو الفاظ پنج (پنج) کا مجموعہ ھےجس کے معنی پانچ اور آب (آب) کےمعنی ہیں پانی۔
پنجاب" کی اصطلاح قرون وسطی کےدور میں ایک مبہم خطہ کے لیے استعمال ھوتی تھی۔ یہ کوئی سیاسی ادارہ یا ریاست نہیں تھی

جسکی اپنی اچھی طرح سےمتعین سرحدیں تھیں۔
سادہ الفاظ میں پنجاب ایک جغرافیائی اصطلاح ھواکرتی تھی، سیاسی نہیں۔
پنجاب کاعلاقہ سلطان التمش کےدور میں دہلی سلطنت کاحصہ ھواکرتا تھا۔ تاہم اسکےبعد منگول حملوں نے پنجاب کے زیادہ ترحصےکو ان دوطاقتوں کےدرمیان میدان جنگ میں تبدیل کردیا۔
پنجاب کا

بیشتر حصہ اب بھی دہلی سلطنت کے کنٹرول میں تھا، لیکن اس کا کچھ حصہ منگول سلطنت کے کنٹرول میں تھا۔
دہلی سلطنت کے اندر پنجاب ایک متحد صوبہ نہیں تھا۔ پنجاب کا علاقہ، سلطنت دہلی کے دیگر علاقوں کی طرح، چھوٹی انتظامی اکائیوں میں تقسیم کیا گیا تھا جسے اقتا کہا جاتا تھا۔

Independent India has always been a vibrant democracy, except for the #Emergency years of #IndiraGandhi from 1975-77. That it has taken a decisive turn to religious majoritarianism under the #BJP and under #Modi since 2014 doesn't change that fact. (1/)

Democracy is not necessarily congruent with liberal values or even human rights. #Slavery was legal both in the democracy of Great Britain as well as the USA for almost a hundred years since the US' formation. Even a White woman was not considered equal to a man in America. (2/)

#Blacks in the #US did not have equal rights even after the abolition of slavery for another 100 years under #Lincoln, but we still think of the US in #1960 as a democracy.

6 lakh Punjabis appear for IELTS, TOEFL annually & 1.5 Lakh #Punjab #students move to foreign colleges every year; emigration process cost is Rs 20 lakh for the 1'st year, i.e. 30,000 crore going out of Punjab each year.

Paucity of jobs, avenues, is draining Punjab !!

Before the Covid-19 outbreak, there were around 17,500 IELTS centers in Punjab, including more than 2,200 in the Doaba region only, the NRI belt of the state comprising four districts – Jalandhar, Kapurthala, Nawanshahr and Hoshiarpur. In Jalandhar alone, there are 1,550 centers

Consultants say that more than 40% of all students who migrated from India to foreign countries are from #Punjab. Parents see no future for their children, & drug addiction has only compounded the woes. In such a situation, the immigration industry has become quite huge Punjab !

Recently we have seen pictures from #Pakistan that people are keeping the graves of women members of the family under lock and key as NERCOPHILIA cases are on the rise.

The society of Pakistan has become so Horny that now the #Graves of #Womens are not safe.

Thread 🧵

Pakistan is an Islamic Nation where after the death of people they are buried in Kabristan so that their soul can get peace.
But now people in Pakistan are locking the Female Graves as the NERCOPHILIA cases are on the rise.

What is Nercophilia? and why people are locking the Graves of womens.

Nercophilia is a paraphilia whereby the perpetrator gets sexual pleasure in having sex with the dead.

So to save Womens from these perpetrators Pakistani families are locking the Graves of Womens.

The story of the last one year is in front of us all and we all know that I don't need to repeat it, but I want to highlight some things here so that you can compare the trap laid by Imran Khan with today's situation. Who are in the closed street and in whose

hands is the spread!
When #Imran Khan was going to reach Pindi by taking a long march, General R. Bajwa was very nervous and he had very little time left!
In regime change, Bajwa was promised an extension in London that after removing Imran Khan, you will be given an extension!

After that Imran Khan had to clear the way for Nawaz Sharif by disqualifying him and again Nawaz Sharif had to be qualified with Imran Khan!
In the meantime Imran Khan was to be put in jail and the party was to be divided into pieces.
