Pakistanis often claim to be Indian out of embarrassment, says LinkedIn post

Sarthak Ahuja, an Indian investment banker, claimed on LinkedIn that Pakistanis abroad often conceal their nationality, posing as Indians due to embarrassment over Pakistan's global image. He cited an incident in New York and observed this pattern in various countries, including the UK, where Pakistani-run restaurants are labeled as "Indian." Ahuja believes India's positive brand helps them.
