Hindus hope to revive abandoned Saidpur temple

[Hyde]

Every religion must be allowed to build their sacred places. The Government of Pakistan should not only allow them to build it but also co-finance the projects out of their budget for minorities welfare

If there is significant population of Hinduism in Islamabad then they must be allowed to build as many temples as they want. If there is little population then they must still be allowed to build out of their own budget and the government should invest where there is higher concentration of population for minorities.

We should learn to treat all Pakistanis equally

HOW?

Why you did not join us then? and why you failed to make Hindu India realise that you have sides with them in 47? or why Indian Hindus are not aCCEPTING YOU AS iNDIANS?

NO not because of us but because of Hindutva mentality that is still functioning in India. How can we help you? You are Indians to begin with. When India attacks or will attack again Pakistan, you will side with your country India so why does your country continue to subjugate you for something you have never done.

if for 70 years Indian Hindus still harm you because of Pakistan then it is time for another partition.

Sister, sadly you are now trying the same mind games on me which brother @User tried sometime ago before I had to firmly rebuff him.

India will never get partitioned again sister.

You would have to try to do that over our dead bodies. I know killing musalmans has become easy for you guys. You would have to kill 180 million of us first.

Hindutva mentality crept up because of Pak support to terror India. Remember that Hindu right crystallized only after Punjab and Kashmir terror started in 1989.
Open support to Muslims to cause terror in India.
How can you help? Keep your birder open and stick to your policy that Pakistan is a homeland for sub continent Muslims.
Why they did not migrate? One most did not have means. Second even Djinnah retained his palace in Bombay and thought that border will be just a formality and not such a line of enimity. So many may not have cared to move.
It cannot be answered simplistically and needs a lot of patience and understanding.

Finally you answered your own question on why Pakistan is harmful for Indian Muslims by suggesting partition.
Remember that Pakistan was given to all Indian Muslims and Indian land will not be divided for another Muslim country without massive annihilation of a billion people.
Also Indian Muslims are not being subjugated like you are inflammatory suggestions.

Its not just one though is it, how many innocent muslims did the hindus kill and rape in Gujraat or muzafarnager, every few years this happens to you

You are at risk and unprepared


Pakistan has reduced terrorism considerably more people have died in france than Pakistan due to terrorism this year but its difficult to defend soft targets and every now and then the terrorists funded by india will get through
But we are muslim and have unshakeable resolve and we will overcome

This is different to you where you are at risk from the hindu hardliners, hindu mob and where your government, police and security forces can be complicit e.g Gujraat

Gujarat retaliation was nothing compared to the number of Muslims you killed in Pakistan over the last many years

Another partition of india is a gurantee

Indian muslims will need a homeland where they can defend themselves against the hindus

Lol then annihilation of Mecca and medina is also guaranteed because Indian Nukes will reach there.
The consequences of this is unpredictable and will cause a nuclear war. Don't hope for it. It's not a joke. I don't want my family to be destroyed and am sure that the case with you too.

Hindus hope to revive abandoned Saidpur temple

ISLAMABAD: There is no place in Islamabad for Hindu religious gatherings. While there is a temple, Hindus are not allowed to pray inside.

On August 11 — National Minorities Day — Hindu citizens of Islamabad plan to revive an abandoned temple at the foot of the Margalla Hills.

Indian Hindu temple lifts ban on women devotees

The temple in Saidpur Village currently serves as a tourist site, while over 850 Hindus living in the city have been barred from performing religious rituals here.

“The sanctity of the holy place will be restored and Hindu families living in Islamabad will finally have a place to pray,” said PTI lawmaker Lal Chand Malhi, who is leading the campaign.

Malhi said the campaign would be initiated by writing letters on August 11 to Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, President Mamnoon Hussain and Islamabad Mayor Ansar Aziz, who is the custodian of the site.

At present, Hindu residents of Islamabad have to go to Rawalpindi to find the nearest accessible temple.

“First, we will try to force the government and its departments to allow us to make the temple operational. If no response is received, community members, political parties and civil society will open it for prayers,” Malhi said.

A pre-Partition mandir and the struggle to protect it

According to Capital Development Authority records, Rama Mandir was built by Raja Mann Singh around 1580 . The temple also had a dharamshala (rest house for pilgrims), which has been converted into a public toilet, Malhi said.

The visitors, he said, disregard the sanctity of the site and walk inside the temple with their shoes on. He said carvings in the walls of Lakshmi and Kali were painted over by the CDA in 2006 when it converted Saidpur village into a tourist site.

The PTI lawmaker said that until a few decades ago, Hindus would spend large amounts of money to keep temple intact. “The temple is ours. The community has every right to go there and pray,” Malhi said.

Islamabad Mayor Aziz told The Express Tribune that he would try to support the request, once received.

He said the Hindu community would be given every right to worship at their holy place. “I will be more than happy to help Hindus living in Islamabad to get access to their temple,” Aziz added.

Kapil Dev, a rights activist, said that before partition, Saidpur had a significant Hindu population, but most of them left for India in 1947. Soon after, the temple fell into disuse.

What did the Hindus expect in the first place. Its Pakistan.

Muslim Indians have always been able to take care of themselves. Fight for their homes.

We were not built to run like others.

 

[I S I]

Go on & make one.

But you didn't fight??

You got slaughtered and abused because you dont have weapons and your own police, security and politicians side with the hindu mobs

Your only chance is strong muslim politicians, moving to muslim only/majority areas and hording weapons for the next attack

 

[dev_moh]

There is no city in the Indian Punjab, which doesnt have mosques.
There is no city or village here, prohibiting muslims from performing their religious duties.

Why would they fight ? Happy people don't fight. And this is why Pakistan is harmful for Indian muslims
Non Indian Muslims keep fighting with all. They have achieved nothing and depend on America or China to protect them, including Pak. First us and now China

Mecca and Medina???
What do they and Saudi Arabia have to do with Pakistan and India

Your not threatening all of the muslims of the planet are you?

@adil_minhas see what I mean, its the average hindu around you which is your threat, who will kill you and your family unless you prepare
