LARKANA: May 7, 2012. (Nazir Siyal) A renowned intellectual scholar, writer and historian Nasim Yousaf has said that the Allama Mashriqi had predict that the partition of Indian sub-continent (Pakistan and India) will bring hatred and terrorism, foresee the India breaking up and hostility taking hold in the region forever, it will not damage a peace in South Asia but has obvious implication for the rest of the world. He said Allama Innayatullah Khan AL-Mashriqi genuinely took steps to bring about unity and a revolution by Khaksar Tehrik (KT), the objective was to free the nation from the British and to keep the nation from breaking up. He said mathematician Allama Mashriqi warned the public, calling for a revolution, and said “after the advent of Lord Mountbatten India will be a heap of slaughter and tyranny henceforth…the only way to get out of this calamity was that the Hindus and the Muslims should unite for a common revolution against the dirty politics of the present day.” He further told about the partition of India according to Allama Mashirqi "the last remedy under the present circumstances is that all rise against this conspiracy [partition of India ] as one man. Nasim Yousuf said general writers began biased re-writing history on biased from there onwards, as well glorifying their leaders’ roles and eliminating Mashriqi’s pivotal role in bringing about freedom. Instead, he was portrayed as a villain, as were other nationalists who had sought to maintain unity of the sub-continent. In fact partition was avertable, had the leaders not played in the hands of the rulers and come to agreement for the sake of the region’s long term future. He said the general people would have followed suit and focused on commonalities rather than differences. Time and ground realities have also proven that partition has only produced harsh suffering and dangerous animosities including the proliferation of deadly weapons he told. Nasim told that Innayatullah Mashrqi watched the political events and developments very closely as well the reality of two countries divided, but what is shocking is that there seems to be no realization (by educationists, speakers, writers, media etc.) that by distorting history and by justifying partition, hatred is being taught to children in their most prime and impressionable ages he said. He said there is no realization of the obvious that under these circumstances – in which partition is explained, justified, and internalized by the countries’ youth – peace between the two countries cannot be achieved and Aman Ki Asha cannot be successful on the occasion.
