Compulsive Indo-Pak peaceniks will love this. A Karachi-based couple gave birth to a baby girl in India and named her Mother India.
Compulsive Indo-Pak peaceniks will love this. Five years ago, when Karachi-based couple Akbar and Mubbasarin came to India to visit relatives in UP’s Moradabad, Mubbasarin gave birth to a baby girl who was promptly named Mother India by her overjoyous father.

So it goes that Mother India, whose father refuses to change her moniker, has charmed her neighbourhood in a way her namesake hasn’t managed to in over 60 years.
