  • Sentiments against Pakistan are viewed by some as commonplace in parts of South Asia. This sentiment was common in Bangladesh for a long period of time due to the 1971 War.Today it's mainly found in India and to a certain extent in Afghanistan due to Pakistan's political and military support for the former Taliban regime which is allegedly despised by most Afghans. Today, anti-Pakistani sentiment continues based on Pakistani military aggression in the middle of the 20th century, war atrocities committed by the Pakistan Army and Bangladeshi citizens who pledged their loyalties to Pakistan known as "Razakars"[citation needed] before and during the Bangladesh Liberation War, and alleged Pakistani state-sponsored terrorism. However this sentiment has gone down in recent years with the rise to power of Jamaat-e-Islami_Bangladesh and other similar political entities which preach a more anti-Hindu/Indian stance. While passions have settled somewhat since Pakistan's defeat in the 1971 war, tempers continue to flare on occasion over the perception among some that the Pakistan government has made insufficient reparations for the 1971 Bangladesh atrocities, or has sought to whitewash the history of these events. There also remains a great deal of hatred for past actions of Muslim conquerors who are revered as almost saints in Pakistani nationalism, The Muslim conquest in the Indian subcontinent, The relentless Persecution of Hindus and the execution of Guru Teg Bahadur a Sikh religious figure by Muslims historically associated with Pakistan makes much for the origins of anti-Pakistani sentiment among many Sikhs and Hindus. Historically India has condoned a general anti-Pakistani sentiment because of the dispute over the control of Kashmiri region. India and Pakistan are considered arch-rivals and have fought four wars over the Kashmir issue. Many films have been produced by Bollywood and Lollywood over the years attempting to capitalize on the negative sentiment prevalent between the two nations. Furthermore anti-Pakistani sentiment has been labelled as being anti-Islamic, especially by Pakistani religious leaders in order to play on the sense of solidarity amongst Muslims evoked by this.
