The focus was that how both the countries have represented each other through their discourse. The given thirty editorials were selected for the analysis. Hidden ideologies were analyzed through the discursive structures used in the editorials. Discursive strategies like positive self-representation and negative other-representation is used by the researcher for macro analysis of the data. Actor description, euphemism and evidentially like strategies were used for micro analysis. Pakistani editorials were found to be using the micro strategies more than the Indian usage. The study concluded that Pakistan is in defensive mood and is using micro strategies more like positive self-representation, while India is found to be in aggressive mood and hence focuses on negative other-representation.</p>}, number={1}, journal={PalArch’s Journal of Archaeology of Egypt / Egyptology}, author={Khalil Ahmad and Mian Shah Bacha and Rabiah Rustam}, year={2022}, month={Apr.}, pages={1972-1997} }
