Ali The Brave Soldier

This all started with the brutal war of


Pakistan and India which was to infiltrate
forces into Jammu and Kashmir to
precipitate an insurgency against Indian
rule on 1965 in between India and
Pakistan. Many brave Pakistani soldiers
fell martyr that day but the saddest thing
was that India won the War that day and
captured a soldier named Ali and took
him with them.
The Indians celebrated all night
but they imprisoned Ali and in the
morning they tortured him insanely. First
they whipped him. Then, put his head in
a tank full of water and kept it there for
a whole minute. Then they pulled him
outside and then they put him back
inside and beat him with clubs. At night
Ali was covered in bruises and blood.
Everyday they tortured him brutally and
he felt that he would never return to his
homeland. But this changed one day
when an old man came to him and
gestured him to come forward. Ali came
forward and the man told him that he
was the gate keeper and was a Pakistani
like him but acted like an Indian so that
he could free POW’s (prisoners of war).
Nobody suspected that he did it because
they thought he was just an old man. Ali
however, thought this was a trick but
the old man told him that he could trust
him and Ali had no choice but to give it a
try. The man told him that there was a
brick that would reveal a cave which was
designed by the British during the Raj
and at the end of the cave would be a
park. Over there people would tell him
the way if he said that he was sent from
Muhammad (his name) and the old man
went away and said may God speed your
way, brave man. After the day’s torture,
Ali waited at night when they were all
asleep and tried all the bricks and the
end one gave a passage way. He ran
down it, limping due to his severe
injuries, and saw a park where people
were working and said to one of them
that he was sent by Muhammad. They
welcomed Ali and told him their story
about how the commanders forced
them to work or they would be tortured.
They were very poor but Muhammad
treated them kindly and brought them
food. Then they asked him if he knew
how to fly a plane and as Ali was from
the army but he had an experience, he
said yes and they directed him to a gate,
said no more and got to their work. Ali
went to the gate and as there was no
entrance he begin to climb it and when
he reached it he saw planes of all kind he
was shocked but happy he found a plane
of the right size and really flew the plane
and woke some people and some Indian
pilots flew after him but were too late.
He had crossed the border and they
were very angry.
Ali returned to his wife and children and
was healed in a few days and that was
his happy ending.

Moral: Never give up because everything


is possible.
