The brand value of India has significantly improved worldwide in the last  ten years  and that has made the voice of India a Million times more audible, and credible over Pakistan.

Contrary to that, the image of Pakistan has degraded a lot. This is partly due to Indian diplomacy, and Partly due to internal and external reasons involving Pakistan. Most people around the world now identifies Pakistan as a FAILED TERRORIST STATE, and this is why Pakistan has lost its imaginary  K-case against India. Even Islamist countries don’t support Pakistan, on K issue.

INDIA’S CONSPICUOUSNESS IS A CURSE TO PAKISTAN: In the recent ten years the world has started to take notice of India, due to its speedy economic growth and a  charismatic Prime minister. Mr. Modi has marketed India internationally in a great way and that has put India much ahead with respect to its previous position  in the global map.

Since Mr. Modi has emerged as a great, and most popular  world leader, when he pokes Pakistan on international forums it lends a greater substance. For example in the G20 summit in Beijing where he delivered a strong message on cracking down on the terror attacks  emerging from Pakistan. Following this, the SAARC countries had boycotted the SAARC meet in Islamabad to condemn URI attack.

INDIA’S GROWING RELATIONSHIP WITH AFGHANISTAN AND IRAN: It is known that Pakistani ISI supports Taliban against the Afghan government in managing its finances and sells weapon. India’s relation with Afghanistan is amplifying in the recent years. India’s investment in Afghanistan’s infrastructure and industrial development has brought the two countries closer and this is being viewed by Pakistan as a threat to itself.

Most importantly India’s offer to develop the Chabahar port in Iran is a big strategic blow to Pakistan. A partly  functional Chabahar port is enabling movement of goods from Iran to Afghanistan bypassing Pakistan. For India it will open a 3 way trade corridor to Afghanistan and Iran without involving Pakistan very soon. Only American sanctions are delaying this.

SAUDI ARABIA & OTHER ARAB COUNTRIES: India’s relationship with them  are continuously improving!

KASHMIR: The only matter on which  Pakistan is trying to talk against India is the non-existing Kashmir issue. But during some recent protests against India, some people in Kashmir  waved Pakistani and ISIS flags together. They are likely to  be planted by Pakistan! This was  seen by whole world and they know who is right, thanks to Indian media and RW social media users for spreading the word, images, and VDO Clips.

All in all, Brand value of Pakistan has sufficiently degraded. A few Arab states are driving out some Pakistanis from their states condemning them as BEGGERS! What a shame!!
