Pakistan best place for religious minorities, says Shahbaz Shareef

Originally Posted by The Nation Chief Minister Punjab Muhammad Shahbaz Sharif on Saturday said that Pakistan is a strong refuge for religious minorities where they have complete freedom and rights. He expressed these views while talking to a representative delegation of Dalit Scholars of South Asia. He said that in an atmosphere of subcontinent drenched with cast and creed and ethical prejudices, Pakistan is a safe haven for religious minorities where universal human values based on equality and love with humanity have great importance. The Chief Minister said that religious minorities have been brought into national mainstream of development equally in Pakistan so that no one should lag behind in the race of development. He further said that elimination of poverty in the subcontinent is essential where everyone has equal opportunities of progress. He said that a separate department has been set up for the welfare of religious minorities in the province. He said that this department is playing an important role with regard to fulfilling the educational needs of non-Muslim students and welfare of the minorities. Shahbaz Sharif said that special importance has been given to the progress and prosperity of all religious minorities including Hindu community in Pakistan. Terming the religious minorities as a pride for Pakistan, he said that special attention is being paid to the protection and looking after of religious and historical places of minorities. He said that Lahore, Taxila, Katas Raj, Pakpattan, Nankana Sahib, Hassan Abdal and other places in our country attract non-Muslims all over the world due to their religious and historical importance. Shahbaz Sharif said that scheduled cast community under the leadership of Jogindar Nath Mandal fully supported All India Muslim League during the struggle of creation of Pakistan. Similarly, Christian community also took part in the struggle of creation of Pakistan shoulder to shoulder with Quaid-e-Azam, he added.

Maybe the 1/3rd of the Pakistanis can leave and persecuted minorities from around can come and replace them in the best place for minorities.

That is so true.......no religous minorites have been targeted in Pakistan........No Hindu girls have been kidnapped and forced to convert........Shahbaz Bhatti wasn't killed, he accidently shot up his car from outside while sitting inside it (I know a very mean feet but apparently not impossible as he showed).........That attack on the Ahmedis was just a propaganda........See things are very rosy.......I don't know why these minorities keep complaining then........Must be a RAW/CIA/MOSSAD propaganda!!

[DHONI183]

To compliment Shahbaz Shareef further, here´s what I have to present in his support........

[Jadz]

I wonder which really is the best country on the planet for tolerance of minorities - religious or otherwise? Could it be the UK?

(I have a declared interest in nation-states : there are far too many of them. This in itself fuels nationalism, xenophobia, religious intolerance and the rest. Wa Llahu 'Alam.)

[akheR]

The morally decadent individuals being a minority in any given population, the fact that Zardaris, Sharifs, ... are reigning over the country indeed confirms his aphorism.

I don't think pakistan as a state or society considers Ahmedis as minorities, they are in a separate position! this is the impression I got after all these years of reading their news papers and other things, I might be wrong!
