Punjabi, Sindhi, Pashtun (Pathan), Baloch, Muhajir Is that the best you can do? If you don't like "Ethnic Pakistani," and want to nit pick, why don't you break it down to tribal groups?

I wonder why Muhajir is considered an ethnic group. Pakistan used to be part of India. I would imagine that many of the Indian Muslims in the part that remained India would be of similar ethnic stock to many, or at least some, of the Muslims that were in the part that became Pakistan. It would seem likely that the immigrants from India at the time of the partition, would be from more than one ethnic group, or if they where all from one, that it would be the same as one of the groups who didn't immigrate at that time.
