Answer:
- The combination of religion with politics. It’s not a good mixture of any country, if there leaders listen to religion and religious person to run the country. It’s always a bad sign for people of that state. For ex. Pakistan and India , during Independence, both adopted a secular agenda but only India stuck to it commitment to secularism and now you can see the results. We are the leaders in IT and Science and Technology.
- Though derived from first point, use of religion by people in power. For ex. we are seeing the same trend here in our country as well. At every issue, the media and people in power starts dividing based on religion and community. Same thing happens every where. I am not saying, religious countries are not successful Israel, Malaysia for ex.
- Some of the government policy also needs to be questioned. A lot of educated people from Pakistan actually leave Pakistan for Europe and USA so the brain drain plus lack of employment that accelerates the brain-drain. There service sector when compared to India is also weak.
- Lastly, there fascination with India and that India will attack us if we are not prepared. Thus, there army dictates everything there.
