Uncounted incidents are reported from Sindh province and other parts of Pakistan where Muslims have forcibly abducted and converted Hindu minor girls to Islam for marriage.Various governments of Pakistan, on several occasions, have promised to safeguard the interest of minority communities in the nation. However, rampant attacks on minorities narrate a different story.Islamabad has been discriminating against its religious minorities, which mfested in various forms of targeted violence, mass murders, extrajudicial killings, abduction, rapes, forced conversion to Islam, etc, making Pakist Hindus, Christians, Sikhs, Ahmadiyyas, and Shias one of the most persecuted minorities in the region.( With inputs from ANI )
