Exactly, Archana is very insensitive if you look deep into her character. From the whole Varsha track (giving her baby to her sister), to being blind to Ovi's - her daughter - suffering, to even the way she handled the Soham/Gauri situation, she has come off as insensitive.
Now she's just emphasizing the already clear character trait with this whole Pari thing. She doesn't even know that Ankita is her grand daughter yet, so who is Ankita doing this for? A stranger who conveniently has the same face as you? Okay fine, even if you're doing it as a good samaritan, is it a very "mahaan" thing to see your own grand daughter go through heartbreak?
With Varsha, she didn't give two damns about Manav. For Ovi, she kept on rubbing it in her face that the man who she was crazy about was getting married to her sister - where was the compassion for her daughter?! Even when Ovi left for Canada, she was shunned for hiding her pregnancy when her other daughter did the same thing and was treated completely differently. Once the truth was out, it was still the same jaap for Purvi - as far as I remember, there was no such scene where Archana confronted Purvi and told her that the assumption Purvi made was wrong, and because of Purvi's assumption, Archana had to live away from her daughter, Pari had to live away from her father, and Purvi had to separate from her husband for 20 whole years. She acts like she's so fair to all of her children and gives lectures all the time, but where did the lecture go then?
Now she is putting Pari is in this situation where she has to go back to the boy she has been trying to forget for the last two years for Ankita's sake. Why would you send your own daughter to a slaughter house, knowing that she was in love with Naren? All Pari would get from this is a daily reminder that she will never get Naren back because he's in love with someone else, and she's just being raised as a pig for slaughter. Once Naren realizes his marriage and accepts Ankita, she would have to walk out of his life with the biggest heartbreak ever. =/
