Hey man what's going on?
Fog is going on.
Oh no! My dear friend.
Pakistan, a country which considers India,
as its sworn enemy,
who all throughout the day talks about carrying out Ghazwa-e-Hind in India
Why is it extending a hand of friendship towards India today?
The three wars that we’ve fought with India,
we have learnt our lesson.
We want peace with India
so both nations can grow.
Something is wrong, Daya.
See, at this time a big problem is going on with Pakistan.
Their economy, their political stability,
and their food stability
are all in a shambles.
Desperate Pakistan scrambles for food.
Gilgit erupts in violence.
Locals there, protest against the government over inflation.
Weeks of anger here over food shortage.
If this country drowns further,
scientists will declare it as Atlantis.
See, after 1971, the year 2022,
has been the most challenging year for Pakistan.
And this year, India hasn’t done anything with them.
This mostly, is their own doing.
That's why I feel today
they are so eager to extend a hand of friendship towards India
and accepting their mistake.
But like a dog's tail and Rahul Gandhi's interview,
Pakistan too can never get straight.
That's why even after becoming beggars,
these people are not giving up on Kashmir.
So, let's try to understand this crisis going on in Pakistan
and also see how India should react.

Hello, hello, you are most welcome to this episode of The Sham Sharma Show.
I am Sham Sharma, CEO of secularism
and a secular salute to all of you.
So let's try to understand the factors
behind the ongoing crisis in Pakistan, one by one.
First is the economic crisis of Pakistan.
Ironically, a year ago Imran Khan had said
that the economic situation of Pakistan
is much better than India.
But as a famous Pakistani philosopher quoted,
All at once they changed the time,
changed the emotions, changed the life.
Pakistan's economical condition is very bad at this time.
Its economy is in dire straits.
There is no money left for imports.
An acute energy crisis
has gripped the country.
Pakistan's foreign reserves
have reached a historic low.
They are left with just 3 weeks’ worth
of foreign reserves to import.
In Pakistan, the foreign direct investment
has fallen by 50%.
Pakistan's development spending
has dropped by 50%
because all the money is being spent on debt repayment
and making faulty rockets.
Inflation has almost reached 30%.
Pakistan at this time,
has gone under record levels of debt.
At this time, even the boy from the I am poor meme,
looks like Ambani in front of Pakistan.
Their condition is in such a turmoil
that they have to sell the embassy
to earn money.
Islamabad has got 3 bids
for its Washington property,
for a building that once housed
the defence section
of the country’s embassy in Washington.
I have heard that OYO Rooms
is going to rent rooms there.
The problem with Pakistan
is that since independence,
their political instability
doesn’t seem to end.
Even in the last 10 years,
the country has had six prime ministers.
No party in Pakistan has this time
to develop any long-term economic strategy.
Moreover, to come into power,
these people keep promising free things to their people,
Because of which they have to take more loans.
The whole focus of this country and the army running this country
is towards the funding of **** instead of economic development.
And along with these reasons,
especially even in 2022, there have been some other reasons,
due to which this crisis has taken shape.
One big reason among them is food shortage.
Remember a few months ago
many Indian intellectuals were very happy,
In some hunger indexes,
India has gone behind even Pakistan.
Huger index ranking is fake.
This formula proves it.
If Modi Govt. equals current government
then all negative rankings
equals fake news
and all positive rankings
equals true news.
Now, to India,
where figure shows, it is backsliding
in its fight against malnutrition.
India got 107th rank out of 121 countries.
Obviously, there was a lot of anger, a lot of resentment,
Not because the rank was bad,
but because, the additional insult our country faced.
Nepal's ranking 81.
Sri Lanka's ranking 64.
But again, changed the time,
changed the emotions, changed the life.
The situation is so bad
that food trucks are looted.
Food trucks are protected by armed guards.
The godowns of grains have stampede around them.
People are losing lives.
From onion to milk, prices of daily items
are burning a hole in average Pakistani’s pocket.
Onion prices rose to 202 Pakistani rupees
from 36.7 Pakistani rupees.
To the extent, that the government stopped people from consuming tea.
I would also appeal to the people,
to cut down the consumption of tea by one or two cups.
Because the tea that we import,
even that is imported on credit.
So, tell me, Abhinandan’s one cup of tea,
is costing Pakistan so dearly.
So, what is the reason behind this food shortage?
See, the main reason is the flood that hit Pakistan last year.
State Bank of Pakistan’s governor
quoted 3 main reasons in an interview.
2022 floods,
food inflation was already high,
and floods further impacted the crop.
The continuing Ukraine war
and the arise in food prices globally.
As Pakistan doesn’t have Forex reserves,
even the grains that are being imported by ships
are not being unloaded,
because the government is unable to pay for those grains.
At the Karachi port where 417 containers
of the imported onion, ginger, and garlic are stranded,
due to lack of foreign exchange, the commercial bank,
is not clearing the documents.
All these problems are happening at such a time
when a lot of political instability happening in Pakistan.
See, as we said before
that Pakistan has always been politically unstable.
In the first 11 years of Pakistan
there were 7 prime ministers.
In the last 10 years,
there have been 6 prime ministers
Out of the total 22 prime ministers of Pakistan,
none has ever completed the full 5-year term.
This trend continued even with Imran Khan
who was talking a lot about change.
But with all the old prime ministers,
the army showed the door to him a well.
Get out from here.
But Imran Khan also decided
that brother if I go down,
I’ll take the whole of Pakistan down with me.
So, he has basically declared a war against the Pakistani Army.
Have started calling the Pakistani Army a slave of America.
You can call yourself neutral as much as you want,
say whatever, to call yourself neutral,
in history, people will blame you,
for what you did with the nation.
So, as such there was already pressure on the Pakistani Army,
on top of that
when there was an assassination attempt on Imran Khan,
After that his popularity increased even more.
And the anger against the army increased even more.
Furious Imran supporters were seen
climbing atop army tanks
and vandalizing them.
-Will definitely achieve. -Freedom.
-We will definitely achieve. -Freedom.
-Will give. -Freedom.
-Bajwa too will give. -Freedom.
Until now, Imran Khan has always
remained pro-Taliban too.
So, when the Taliban rule came,
So, for the first time such a government came,
which was pro-Pakistan.
We had relations with them.
Because with the Americans as well as the Ghani government,
Pakistan had facilitated the talks.
And Imran Khan's support for Taliban,
is coming at such a time,
when the power of Taliban has increased a lot in Pakistan.
The snake which was reared by Pakistan
to attack America and India,
that snake is now basically trying to swallow Pakistan.
In the last few months **** attacks
too have increased a lot in Pakistan.
See, when America left Afghanistan,
Afghanistan came back under the control of Taliban.
Along with that, the Taliban also has many American weapons,
many machineries, many vehicles, etc.,
using which they are now attacking Pakistan.
So why are they attacking Pakistan?
See, although Taliban has been created with the help of Pakistan,
but at the end of the day,
Taliban are Afghan nationalists,
who believe that Pakistan's Pashtun majority,
North West Frontier Province,
should be united back with Afghanistan.
They also believe
that despite America being in Afghanistan for 20 years
could not eliminate them
and they captured Afghanistan back,
then Pakistani army is no big deal.
We can defeat the Pakistan Army as well.
See, all these problems
has landed the army in a very bad condition,
And remember that already
Balochistan Independence Movement is going on in Pakistan.
Sindhi Independence Movement is going on in Pakistan.
Pashtuns are also protesting
against the Pakistani government for many years.
So it could be that the Pashtuns who are protesting,
start giving its support to the Taliban against the Pakistani government.
Which can basically create a civil war situation in Pakistan.
And Pakistani Taliban is so confident of victory
that they have announced a parallel government in Pakistan.
The parallel TTP government
has also announced its own cabinet.
A cabinet which consists of various ministries.
There's defence, judiciary, information,
education, intelligence, economic affairs,
political affairs.
A fatwa issuing authority.
Even a department of construction,
and we wonder what this department will construct?
Perhaps a wall making its territory.
So basically, due to all these factors
there is a lot of instability going on in Pakistan at this time.
The situation is such that even a small spark
can create a civil war-like situation in Pakistan.
So, what should India do in such a situation?
See, extending the hand of friendship,
admitting one's mistake,
all these are very good things.
But at the end of the day,
this hand of friendship
is being extended only because
of the ongoing crisis in Pakistan.
As I said,
a nuclear power is roaming around the world with a bowl at this time.
Today we, after 75 years,
today we are roaming around with a bowl
and we see debt here,
we see debt here,
we see debt there,
we see debt behind.
Today, when we go to a friendly country,
they say that they have come to ask.
If someone is called on the telephone
they feel that they will ask from us.
First of all, don't panic.
So, Pakistan at this time
is going to many such countries to ask for money,
which have a good relationship with India.
And if they keep threatening India again and again,
will keep talking about war with India,
if we keep talking about spreading **** in India,
then there are many countries, who would not like to give them money,
especially because the **** which is funded by Pakistan,
that **** along with India
is also going to other neighboring countries of Pakistan.
Another reason why they are extending the hand of friendship towards India
is because they have seen during the economic crisis of Sri Lanka
how India helped Sri Lanka
India has helped many of its neighbors
like Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan in the recent past.
India has the resources to help Pakistan,
so Pakistan is hoping
that by doing this drama of extending a hand of friendship,
we too will get some help from India.
But perhaps India should also understand
that Mohammad Ghori has also used
the same trick with Prithviraj Chauhan
and remember,
as soon as Mohammad Ghori came back to a powerful position,
what he did instead of befriending King Prithviraj Chauhan.
There is a very famous saying
that when your enemy is making a mistake,
you should not disturb him.
So, see, at this time India should
keep its western border strong.
Should keep a good army presence there.
It should be kept in mind
that the political instability
and terrorism that is going on in Pakistan
should not come to the border of India.
In fact, India should also try
that if Pakistan is extending the hand of friendship
and is in a weak position
then how India can use its strong position.
India has an option
that India should say yes brother, we are ready to help you.
But let us first talk
about how Pakistan Occupied Kashmir
can be integrated back into Jammu and Kashmir.
See, in this situation, first of all
India needs to take care of its interest
and I want to ask you
that Pakistan, which is extending a hand of friendship towards India,
how should India react to this?
