The relationship between Pakistan and India is one of extreme complexity and has always been a huge point of debate in the sub-continent. Friendship, since partition, has remained a myth and rivalry has always run rampant. [adinserter block ="3"] However, a recent incident that went viral all over the sub-continent and in many other parts of the world, may have started a trend that changes the way people think about India-Pakistan relations. This is the story of Prabhdeep Singh and his Uber driver Ahmed, who together, have showcased how similar the people of India and Pakistan and their emotions are. Prabhdeep Singh took to Twitter after he visited Pakistan, sharing the absolutely beautiful experience he had in Lahore. Prabhdeep had booked an Uber to Wagha Border and his driver was a local guy named Ahmed. After his ride, this is what Prabhdeep shared on Twitter. https://twitter.com/singhofstanplus/status/1078193915063263233 As per Prabhdeep, Ahmed was the best Uber driver he had traveled with, in the 5 continents he had been to. Ahmed dropped Prabhdeep to the Wagah Border in Lahore and refused to take any money from him because he was Indian. He further talked about love and brotherhood between the two nations. The best part about the incident is that until Prabhdeep crossed the border and stepped into India, Ahmed waited for him, not leaving, just watching him. Now that is something very, very special!
