Numerous North American media outlets report that the Texas House of Representatives declared on 23 March as Pakistan Day in this North American state. The proposal, led by Representative Suleman Lalani, It highlights the contribution of the Pakistani community to the values of “diversity, inclusion, education and prosperity.” and recognises the more than 80,000 citizens of Pakistani origin living in Texas.

According to the resolution, it is an opportunity to recognise “the social, religious, linguistic and economic contributions”of Pakistani immigrants and celebrate the cultural ties between both territories.

What happened on 23 March 1940?

The Pakistan Day Remember the so-called Lahore Resolution, approved in 1940 by the Muslim League. This resolution was the ideological basis for the partition of British India and the foundation of Pakistan in 1947.

This historic event led not only to the creation of an Islamic state, but also to one of the bloodiest episodes of the twentieth century: Thousands of Hindus, Sikhs and other minorities were murdered in organised pogroms., especially during the well-known Direct Action Day spurred on by the Muslim League in 1946. In Calcutta, for example, it is estimated that more than 4,000 Hindus died in just a few days.

CControversial celebration

Opponents of the Texas resolution denounce the hypocrisy of celebrating “diversity” through a commemoration that, at its origin represents the creation of a religious state through sectarian violence.

It is also recalled that Present-day Pakistan continues to persecute religious minorities such as Christians, Hindus and Shias.. The same Islamist elites who demand “tolerance” and “pluralism” in the West say nothing about what is happening in Pakistan. This double standard generates unease among North American sectors that They see the resolution as a form of kneeling before political Islamism under the guise of inclusion..

Divided vote

Although the resolution was approved, five Texan representatives voted against it. One of them, Joanne Shofner, justified her negative vote with a clear statement: “I support persecuted Christians in Pakistan..”
