Pakistan is going through its worst political crisis in years. The former prime minister Imran Khan faces several corruption charges against him. He blames the country's powerful military and the government for conspiring to oust him from politics. An allegation they deny.

Tens of thousands of government supporters are calling for the resignation of Pakistan's chief justice. Trust in the nation's institutions is running low.

We talk about the developments in Pakistan with well-known academic Ashok Swain.

DW chose Ashok Swain since he is one of those JNU imbeciles...Y'know, the type that loved Mughal raj soo much, that secularism fires out his butt cheeks! Should of put a Pk professor or something giving his take and not this pratt!

Ashok swain is anti 360 article (Kshmir) in other words a vile sell out! No wonder DW has given him a platform!

Political views

Swain has expressed his views through his articles and tweets. He has often been critical of right-wing Hindtuva ideologies in India.[citation needed]

Anti-CAA protests
Writing about the widespread anti-CAA protests in 2019, Swain said the Modi government's legislation such as the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, 2019 made India's 200 million Muslims nervous about their status in an "overwhelmingly Hindu-majority country."[4]

Swain wrote that Muslims saw through the Citizenship (Amendment) Act's dangers as that law may lead to millions of Muslims being made stateless though the Act initially only sought to give citizenship to religious minorities from India's neighboring countries who are fleeing those countries and seeking refuge in India. The Act explicitly failed to mention Muslims while mentioning every other religion.[5]

Article 370
Swain was critical of the Modi government's decision to revoke the special status of Jammu & Kashmir. Swain tweeted that liberals who had turned nationalists should be careful about celebrating this decision.[6]
