Response from Pakhtun Tanoli I have provided several references for the Pakhtun origin of Tanolis You have to see the several works of Tanoli and non Tanoli historians in the text and the references list at the end of the article As a social analyst trained in the historical and anthropological analysis and over thirty years of research in this area along with being a university based academic I feel I have an objective role in this debate Secondly I am a son of Malik of one of the septs of Tanolis which has direct role in this debate i e the I have access to family and regional sources to bring to the issues directly related to the topic You username of Raja tells me that you are neither of Pakhtun Tanoli or Hazara NWPF origin Moreover the sources you quote have been consulted by me and there is no mention of Janjuas in those pages of the texts you quote Finally your patronising language is abusive to say the least Incidently I am in the process of publishing my findings which challenge the Afghanisation theory you are so fond of mentioning the text is in the process of being refereed by relevant authorities
