Sacrificial Animals Kept in Hindu Temple In Karachi For Eid

According to US government’s International Religious Freedom Report (IRFR): "Members of religious minority communities stated the government was inconsistent in safeguarding minority rights, and official discrimination against Christians, Hindus, Sikhs and Ahmadis persisted." The report further said that Christian and Hindu organisations girls "were particularly vulnerable to forced conversions".

Large numbers of Hindus live in Karachi and such an incident testifies how the minorities in the Islamic country face the brunt of fanaticism. Many of the incidents go unreported as no action is taken against fringe groups.
