Last week #DeportAllRefugees was trended on Pakistani Twitter, and today there is another deplorable trend #SendBackAfghanRefugees #SendBackAfghanRefugeesسنڌ.

I just didn't follow up with it. Who is behind these trends and why?
Pakistan govt at the time didn't want "more" Afghan refugees on its soil so they denied any govt/state support for the over sixty thousand refugees at this camp in the early 2000s.

They had to after pressure mounted on them later.

Across the board all Pashtun leaders and politicians have always called the Afghans in Pakistan brothers and guests, and never refugees. Regardless of their party affiliation ANP, PKMAP, Jumai Islami, JUI, PPP, Muslim League.
