With the ongoing tension in the country, there are many things erupting. No, we are not talking about neighbor jets and pilots but the erupting hate in people on both sides of the borders. When Indians came to cross our borders uninvited, after being triggered by the Pulwama incident, Pakistan army was unaware and did not think of any such possibility hence, the army couldn’t respond back.
After this incident, Pakistan was alert and decided to surprise India, and it happened quite soon. Again IAF paid a brief visit to Pakistani land but this time, PAF downed the guests. Ouch!
Well, one of the pilots was saved and landed in Pakistan, later he was arrested by Pakistan army and Imran Khan decided to return him as a peace gesture. But what happened while the pilot was in Pakistan and when he returned home?! Indian media was inflated with hate! Utter hate for Pakistan, it was so bad that they again decided to trespass the boundaries through the sea.
Pakistanis were sane about this whole matter until the information Minister of Punjab Fayyaz Chohan passed some hateful comments on Hindus.
Looks like Minster sahb can’t really differentiate between Hindus and Indians. Eh?
This is what we get in response to our love & patriotism for #Pakistan from @PTIPunjabPK Minister @Fayazchohanpti using derogatory words for #Hindus "cow's urine" peenay walo & "idol worshippers" without realizing that #4million Hindus live here. Even his party has Hindu MPs. pic.twitter.com/h8rbpVcjLr

While this Hindu Pakistani activist, tweeted and everyone around him helped raise his voice!
Dear Indians,
Rather than advising me to migrate to India, better you treat fellow Muslims in your country humanly & with dignity.
Migration is neither a solution for #Pakistani #Hindus nor #Indian #Muslims.
Let's make #minorities living in both countries feel safe & secure.

When people on twitter were triggered for what Fayyaz Chohan said, it was only when the power of twitter voices was recognized!
The world is with you if you stand tall to what is right!
Something for #Pakistan to be proud about. Well done @ImranKhanPTI #PTI. #PakPositive. Must keep supporting #plural #inclusive vision beyond optics. https://t.co/Yz70STOGqT

And here it is! Fayyaz Chohan has been removed from the position of Minster Information and Culture. His remarks were quite harsh and how can someone be this hateful?
PTI Punjab government has removed Fayyaz Chohan from the post of Punjab Information Minister following derogatory remarks about the Hindu community. Bashing someone’s faith should not b a part of any narrative.Tolerance is the first & foremost pillar on which #Pakistan was built. pic.twitter.com/uKJiReWc26

So many Hindus were proud after the immediate action taken by the government. Because Pakistanis are aware that the white in the flag represents the minorities and the flag is incomplete without it!
