There’s one tip that Pakistanis have given the people of India, known for politicians holding things to ransom
Pakistan is a country on the brink, having housed Osama bin Laden before and after 9/11, and until that moment when a Navy Seal sprayed three bullets into his body. It is home to bloodthirsty dictators, unscrupulous politicians and subversive elements exporting terror to India and elsewhere.
There is hardly anything like propriety that the country has to offer. Wait. There’s one tip that Pakistanis have given the people of India, known for politicians holding things to ransom. Instead of suffering in silence, Indians should take inspiration from Pakistani travellers who threw former interior minister Rehman Malik out of a Pakistan International Airlines flight for forcing them to wait for two hours.
In a video that has gone viral, posted on Daily Motion and reposted on YouTube, Malik is seen shooed away by angry passengers at the entrance of the aircraft.
