The CJP gave these orders while presiding over a bench of Supreme Court (SC) during the hearing of suo motu notice on non-construction of church in Kamonki despite the availability of funds.

Upon the court’s orders, MPA for minorities Tariq Masih Gil appeared before the court and told the court that he got funds sanctioned for construction of church as the provincial minister. The construction work could not begin due to the general election and the construction will be started following the release of funds.

The court directed the Punjab additional advocate general to release the allocated funds for the construction of the church so that construction work could begin by the month of October.

Earlier, CJP had taken suo motu notice on the application of a citizen that Tariq Gill has not initiated construction work of the church despite having the required funds.

Wow what a contrast and will this biased western media ever publish this story that the CJP of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan is ordering to build the church funded by the taxpayer's money while the the so called west is busy placing different types of bans and restrictions on Muslims and making it impossible to build massajid (mosques) and even banning headscarf.

Shouldnt the Title be cjp orders to resume the construction?

 

[BATMAN]

Govt. should not fund construction of any religious building, irrespective of religion /sect.
Same time govt. should audit the source of funds being used on construction of religious buildings, movements, parades, advertisements.
Religious gatherings should be strictly denied at any place, other than officially approved buildings.

Christianity crackdown: Mob BEATS worshippers protecting church from attack

A GROUP of Christians were attacked by an angry mob as they attempted to protect their church from being demolished by a tractor in a major row over the land - with the assault leaving a child with a broken arm.

Children were also beaten by the gang of 50 Muslims on the August 2 attack that took place on church property in Kasur, a Punjab province on the Pakistan-India border.

The church in question has been named as St Matthew’s Catholic Church and is currently under construction.

It serves around 40 families in a community that built the congregation with their own cash.

Victim, Bashir Masih, told Christianity watchdog International Christian Concern (ICC): “A charged mob of over 50 Muslim men, led by a local Muslim, attacked the Christians at Waran Chak Balyana village in Kasur on August 2, 2018.

I hope @HRK and @Slav Defence can provide you good explanation.

Of course since I’m sure it was widely reported in non-biased Eastern media.

Of course since I’m sure it was widely reported in non-biased Eastern media.

Especially it becomes more credible when you quote a newspaper whose head office is thousands of miles aways while none of the local media reported. You are a special kind of moron..

 

[Sugarcane]

Well, that's good but CJ should have referred it to new government and should apply breaks on his sue motto spree and let the new administration (whose job it is) to work first, if they don't do their job then sure he can restart it.

You need to understand local customs, culture, society & especially events related to estate/property conflict. Mostly, people come with religious building idea over disputed or occupied property and so keep it under religious banner that even Police avoids to go in conflict. As said, mentioning of Christianity attracts a lot of media or minority rights group/westerners and same goes to other side as well; this is how narrative is being built mostly. Even, fake Mullahs use to build Madressah or Masjid just to occupy a piece of land. It goes both ways.

Good we should take care of minorities. We should make and renovate churches, temples, mosques , gurdwara. We should also take care for them so that our brothers go in their religious place freely, and in peaceful environment.

Wow what a contrast and will this biased western media ever publish this story that the CJP of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan is ordering to build the church funded by the taxpayer's money while the the so called west is busy placing different types of bans and restrictions on Muslims and making it impossible to build massajid (mosques) and even banning headscarf.

The western media promotes atheism and doesn't care about Christians or Muslims instead instigates between them.The truth always prevails some how so there's nothing we gotta prove to them.

 

[Mahmood-ur-Rehman]

All minorities are free to live their life according to their religion in Pakistan and this right is given by Islam

Wow what a contrast and will this biased western media ever publish this story that the CJP -

No, they didn't. And you're right: it deserves mention in the Western media - alongside the recent stories of the murders and tortures of Christians in Gujranwala and the acquittal of Christians accused of blasphemy by a Pakistani court of in Gujranwala.

However, "western media" didn't publish these stories, either, so it's tough to make the accusation of "bias" stick.
