Outrage against school due to claims of anti-Pakistan sentiment
A beaconhouse test paper causes outrage against the school.
Another day, another new outrage. #BoycottBeaconHouse has been trending all over Twitter after the image of a test paper appeared with an apparently “anti-Pakistan” question.

Let’s just say, things escalated very quickly in a short period of time.
Students and other relevant personalities are accusing the schooling system of committing treason against Pakistan. A large number of accounts have come up further highlighting the many cases where our history books have led us astray.
They are blaming India to be behind this, as always, stating that these schools are funded by India and purposely portray a negative image of Pakistan by turning our victories into defeats.

While others seemed to have a sudden strike of enlightenment and rose against the school’s extra-curricular which, mind you, have been a regular practice for several years now.
Beaconhouse is doing deep subversion in our country. They are destroying our future generations. We
should stop and #BoycottBeaconHouse immediately.
Government should stop this immediately. pic.twitter.com/4NXo6dAbMF— Zohaib Ali (@ZohaibMI) October 1, 2018

Thankfully, there are individuals who realize how absurd, not to mention unnecessary, these protests are. They recognize the importance of teaching our newer generations historically accurate information.
We lost half the country in 1971, how on earth are we going to lie to #Pakistani youth and paint it as a victory. Stop living in la la land. Learn to face reality and cut this #BoycottBeaconHouse nonsense out. pic.twitter.com/2G9JBQttwu

this hashtag is so funny, they are asking to ban a school because of O level Pakistan curriculum which asked why india won 1971 war from Pakistan. I say our next generation should know the answer why state of Pakistan failed in 1971 #BoycottBeaconHouse
