Pakistan Zindabad

"Pakistan Zindabad" is an Urdu phrase that translates to "Long Live Pakistan." It is commonly used as a patriotic slogan in Pakistan, especially during national events, political rallies, and sports matches. The phrase symbolizes pride and love for the country, often chanted to express support for Pakistan or during celebrations of national achievements.

In India, the slogan has been a source of controversy when it appears in politically or socially sensitive contexts. In some instances, individuals chanting "Pakistan Zindabad" in India have faced legal actions, accusations of sedition, or public backlash, especially during moments of heightened tensions between the two countries.

The slogan, while emblematic of national pride in Pakistan, has sparked debates and incidents in India, particularly in situations where it is perceived as undermining Indian nationalism or promoting divisive sentiments.

In February 2023, BOOM investigated claims that students at Saharanpur's Glocal University had raised 'Pakistan Zindabad' slogans.

BOOM spoke to several students and a teacher from the university, who clarified that the slogans being raised were actually 'Zaid Sir Zindabad' and 'Monish Sir Zindabad,' not 'Pakistan Zindabad,' debunking the false claims.
