Pak Hindu Council express fear of migration of Hindus from Pakistan

AMRITSAR: Pakistan Hindu Council has expressed fear of mass migration of Hindu's from Pakistan if the government didn't take action against the builder who have demolished a century old Sri Rama Peer Mandir for commercial purpose on last Saturday.

While talking to TOI over phone from Pakistan , Patron of Pakistan Hindu Council Ramesh Vankwani said, "The issue has to be highlighted worldwide and if the government didn't take strict action against the builder, there was possibility of migration of Hindus from Pakistan" adding that the fate of other buildings owned by Hindu's was also uncertain. He said three plots numbering 38,39 and 40 in Doli Khata area of Karachi belonged to Hindu community before Indo Pak partition. The temple was built on plot number 38 while one of the Hindu community member Naresh Kumar had sold the plot number 39 to a builder Ismile Gora in 2005. "The builder had no right to demolish the temple which is on plot number 38 and is shown on map also" said Vankwani.

"The fear of security among Hindu community can trigger migration to India" he reiterated. On the other hand Vice Chairperson of Pakistan's Human Rights Commission's Sindh Chapter Amarnath Motumal discounted the possibility of migration of Hindus from Pakistan after recent incident of demolition of temple. He said that the builder had made some 'manipulations' and demolished the temple which was unfortunate. He said he was sure that Pakistan government would take notice of the incident and deliver justice to the ailing Hindu community. Meanwhile another Hindu organization Pakistan Hindu Seva Trust has decided to hold a function 'My Voice Counts' on December 9th to take up the issue to mark the International Human Rights Day. President of the Trust , Sanjash S Dhanja said that the community was perturbed over such incidents which keep happening quite often. "I think there is a need to sensitize the people on the issue". He said they had invited prominent right activists on the function to deliver their view point and try help build favourable atmosphere for Hindus of Pakistan. Eom
