Sri Sri Ravi Shankar said "Pakistan Zindabad"?????

New Delhi, March 13: Sri Sri Ravi Shankar’s grand World Culture Festival that is taking place at the banks of the Yamuna, might have gone on despite the huge controversy about environmental damage, but it is now set to fall into another controversy. 

On Saturday, the festival witnessed a unique scene, when the slogans of ‘Pakistan Zindabad’ were shouted on the same podium where Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh was also seated. However, they were soon followed by slogans of ‘Jai Hind’.

But in reality, After the Islamic scholar finished his speech, Mr. Shankar said that Pakistan too has been hit by terrorism, and that India and Pakistan should progress together.
“Jai Hind and Pakistan Zindabad should go together. It should be a win-win situation for both sides. We should focus on winning and making the other also win,” said Mr. Shankar.
His statement comes at a time when India is seeing a debate on nationalism, which was triggered by an event at Jawaharlal Nehru University in February where students allegedly raised pro-Pakistan slogans.
