A local Pakistan newspaper announces the birth of Pakistan

And finally, here are headlines as Dawn, a legendary Pakistan newspaper, announces the birth of Pakistan. Today both countries are very similar in many aspects but area also quite different. Politicians on either side of the border keep a large element of mutual suspicion andh hatred alive on both sides of the border, usually to fulfill their own personal political agenda. Fortunately however, in this modern age of social media and with youngsters not giving a rat's ass about issues like religion, race and colour, hopefully the two countries can kiss and make up and be good friends once again. To hell with the politicians and religious fundamentalists. (Amritsar, Punjab, northern India, Nov. 2017)
