Political impotence
This refers to the article by Muhammad Ishaq Khan whereby he refutes the statement of Sheikh Nazir Ahmad. The author blames Sheikh Nazir for seeking cheap publicity. This has been written about a person who till date never hogged the limelight and always stayed away from controversy and media attention. It is also worth mentioning that Sheikh Nazir Ahmad doesn’t even have an Indian passport. That speaks volumes about the credibility of Sheikh Nazir Ahmad. By the way Prof. Khan a well-known historian, used to praise Sheikh Muhammad Abdullah in his articles just a few years back. I wonder what prompted a change in his ideology in such a short span of time.
