Hindus in Pakistan

Pakistan, a country formed when British left Indian subcontinent in 1947. Partition that not just took the right of Hindus to live in their ancestral land (no deemed as Pakistan), but also took their Freedom to practice religion in the country.

During the formation of Pakistan, Hindus were either asked to leave the country or live a life as a 2nd grade citizen. On the other hand thanks to Mr. Gandhi, Muslims in India were given a second chance to live and prosper in India.

What amazes me is the fact that Hindus born in Pakistan have no right to vote, express their religion nor practice their beliefs, where as muslims in India have every right under the sun! They can still be treated as Indian and practice their own laws when it comes to being Muslim.

the root of this situation lies when the country under went partition back in 1947. While India was formed on principles of human rights every man/woman should be treated equal, pakistan was formed as an islamic state which meant every non-muslim is a criminal and has to pay taxes in order to live within a muslim country.

This same guiding principles evolved over years, in India muslims gained prominence as a minority vote bank and were exploited by politicians for their own benefit and were given additional rights than their Hindu counterparts.

Where as in pakistan, the life of a Hindu kept on deteriorating to a level that he no longer had any rights and was treated as cattle a low life creature that didn't have a right to exists. They are ridiculed, taunted for being different.

I am not trying to create a debate here, but what I want my muslim friends in India to comprehend the fact that the liberties that they enjoy in India as minorities should be enjoyed by Hindus in pakistan.

As you know the plight of considered a minority in India, please help your Hindu brothers as they face the same plight in pakistan.
