1. The Maulana is also being criticised on social media. Pakistani journalist Veengas said, ‘Statements made by him are shocking. Sindhi Hindus are the son of the soil. Sindh is the land of peace and love. Maulana should regret his statements.
2. Recently, Hindu students from the Punjab and Karachi universities of Pakistan were beaten up over the Holi celebrations. Also, Dharam Dev Rathi, a Hindu doctor from the Sindh Province was stabbed to death by his driver Hanif.
Editorial viewpoint
India was known by the Sindh Province but the current situation of Hindus here is shameful for the Hindus ! Only the Hindu Rashtra can change this situation ! |
