Pakistan after Independence
At the time of freedom, India hoped that this new country will not survive for long time. But Pakistan is present on the world map with glory and esteem. Although Pakistan faced three Marshal Laws and many other hard times. India has fought three wars with Pakistan. Freedom of Kashmir and control over Siachin are also big issues. But it is the matter of fact that as a nation, we have got many glorious successes in every field, Science and Technology, Politics, Military, Education, International Relations, Economy Infrastructure etc with limited resources but still much to do for development and to make the life of a common person more comfortable.
