Pro-Pakistan sentiment

Pro-Pakistan sentiment is fondness and love of aspects of Pakistani culture, Pakistani history, Pakistani cuisine, Pakistani traditions and the people of Pakistan.

In the political context, it can refer to having positive sentiments for the Pakistani state.[1][2]

The like or interest of Pakistan is the opposite of Pakophobia,[3] Pakistanophobia[4] or Anti-Pakistan sentiment, which is the fear and dislike of things concerning Pakistan.

During the 2011 ICC World Cup semi-final between Pakistan and India, a Times of India article observed that Srinagar was "shut down" for the clash, children missed their school and that instead of India, some Kashmiri cricket fans showed their support for the Pakistani cricket team.[5] On 13 October 1983, during a limited over cricket match between West Indies and India at Sher-i-Kashmir Stadium, Srinagar, the crowd cheered India's defeat with Pakistan Zindabad cries.[6] The slogan, Pakistan Zindabad, has been used by some Kashmiris, who support Kashmir's accession to Pakistan, in the Indian-administered Kashmir.[7] Supporters are also detained by local police for raising such slogans.[8]
