I think we the Pashtun are discriminated in our own land by the minorities. It is solely because of the unjust and unnecessary pressure of the neighbours such as Iran who support the Hazara rights only for religious purpose. Today Hazaras and Tajiks are enjoying the government in Afghanistan. Afghan parliament and no Afghan will ever accept the so called Durand line. The line was dead, the day British left India. If British India does not exist the Durand line will never exist. Thousands of Pashtuns cross borders from and to Pakistan, and their language their passport. We have family members on both sides.
