Pakistanis should be eternally thanking their lucky stars, that India’s Pakistan policy is mostly dictated by culturally empathetic North Indian Babus, otherwise, every time a South Indian realist (with nothing in common with Pakistan - language or culture) got a chance, he took Pakistan to cleaners: S. Jaishankar (Tamil, suspended Indus Waters Treaty, called Pakistan a bad neighbour using terror as policy, enforced no talks with terror), G. Parthasarathy (Tamil, High Commissioner during Kargil, argued terrorism and dialogue cannot coexist), Parvathaneni Harish (Telugu, called Pakistan a global epicentre of terrorism, defended IWT suspension), Syed Akbaruddin (Hyderabad, isolated Pakistan at UN post-Article 370), K. Nagaraj Naidu (Hyderabad, affirmed J&K as integral at UN), Sibi George (Kerala, Political Counsellor in Islamabad under terror-first framework), V. Ravichandran (Tamil Nadu cadre, Deputy NSA involved in kinetic counter-terror responses), N. Parthasarathi (Karnataka, served in Pakistan, framed its identity as non-Indian under Army control), VK Krishna Menon (Kerala, marathon UN speech defending Kashmir position), Gopalaswami Parthasarathy (Tamil, High Commissioner managing Kashmir diplomacy ruling out plebiscite), Sandeep Kumar Bayyapu (Telangana, UN mission team defending Kashmir and countering Pakistani narratives), P. Kumaran (Counsellor in Islamabad during tensions, later senior role in terror-first approach).
