and btw these people dont consider themselves mohajirs. Most people who migrated from india became pakistanis and have nothing to do with india. Its only the MQM supporters who still call themselves mohajirs.

Muhajir means refugee. You are not refugees.

well generally speaking if you mention that your family migrated from India, you get people raising eye brows for some reason.

People should not call them Mohajirs. These people are Pakistanis and many of them came to pakistan before 1947. Junaid Jamshed's father is a pure pashtun, he just worked in Delhi during British India as it was one country back then. His mother is from UP in India. I think this mohajir term should only be applied to MQM supporters today. Most of pakistani people today dont like MQM, i would say most people who migrated from india dont support MQM.

Mohajirs who are part of MQM need to keep seperating themselves, yes there was racism against before but now like other mohajirs like these you posted, they should become pakistanis. MQM is always trying to create a drift between them and others, they kill so many pashtuns, baloch etc... for no reason

true. Also given the fact that the "mohajirs" don't constitute a single ethnic groups but rather they consist of many ethnic groups including, Bengalis, Tamils and others. Their language of commonality is what gets them mistaken as one
