The Pakistani hug

There has been a religious decree against tourism minister Nilofar Bakhtiar. One more "WTF is happening" scenario. Just for those who are not aware fatwa is an opinion by a group of people, nothing more.

Years ago, at a time when there were no such fatwas and Khushwant Singh had planted a peck on the cheek of the Pak High Commissioner's daughter, he was asked to apologise. Therefore, it has nothing to do with religious edicts alone.

    About hypocrisy, all societies are to a different degree and for different reasons...
