Interests matter.
Just Like Pakistan TOTALLY Ignores, the Condition of Muslims in China but Shows Great concern for Muslims in India.

PS : I'm staill waiting for a SINGLE Pakistani from "Islamic" Republic of Pakistan to pen a Thread about Quran being banned in China.

China bans Muslim children from Quran classes

"Their Country Their rules" is a Rule which my Honorable Pakistani members follow ONLY in case of China, but forget about India. How Ironic.

Why you Indians lose your marbles so quickly and easily. Are you not taught to read and use common sense? China is LISTED in this so called American report. So China is already there. What honourable minister was pointing to is this rather awkward omission of India with its very known and well documented track record of minorities abuses.

US Using As Brazen Political Tactic To Pressure Pakistan : Minister For Human Rights, Dr Shireen Mazari

Minister for Human Rights, Dr Shireen Mazari on Wednesday said it was apparent that the United States was using as a brazen political tactic to pressure Pakistan to mitigate its failures in Afghanistan.

ISLAMABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 12th Dec, 2018 ) :Minister for Human Rights, Dr Shireen Mazari on Wednesday said it was apparent that the United States was using as a brazen political tactic to pressure Pakistanto mitigate its failures in Afghanistan.

Expressing surprise at US Administration's decision to add Pakistan in "Blacklist for religious freedom violations," she said timing of this move reflects this most clearly.

In a statement issued here, Dr Mazari said there was no doubt Pakistan's record on religious freedom is not ideal but then is the EU's record much better given restrictions on churches, the banning of certain dress codes of Muslims, refusal of entry of certain preachers - the list continues.

"In our own neighbourhood we have India where Muslims are being targeted and where the BJP is supporting violence against Muslims ostensibly over "beef," she maintained.

The Minister said timing of the US move smacks of pure political blackmailing because it comes in wake of Pakistan opening the Kartarpur corridor to ease access for Sikhs of India to their religious places as well as assisting Hindu groups to enter Pakistan for religious purposes when India has sought to prevent Muslims from Pakistan visiting Ajmer for religious purposes.

The deliberate ignoring of India's shrinking space for its religious minorities by the US while it targets Pakistan is absurd and unacceptable.

In case the US is ignorant about large and diverse presence of Christian churches in Pakistan, the Minister said she would like to educate the Trump Administration on this count.

At the moment, she said, the following diverse denominations of Christian churches are present in Pakistan: Catholic, Methodist, Anglican, Lutheran, Baptist, Presbyterian, Pentecostal (3 separate groups under this church), Evangelical, Renewalist, Salvation Army and then as a separate entity Church of Pakistan directly linked to Archbishop of Canterbury.

Additionally, Dr Mazari reminded that Pakistan has moved to allow its non-Muslim citizens own personal laws of marriage and divorce in keeping with their religious strictures.

She said while we have to move forward to further improve condition of all our citizens including our religious minorities and other vulnerable groups, the US's move is not based on any facts but is a purely political move in an attempt to pressure on Pakistan to do its bidding.

Perhaps President Trump needs to be reminded of Prime Minister's pledge to the Pakistani nation that Pakistan will only act in its own interests and not be a "hired gun" for any other power.

It is time for the US to take responsibility for its failures in Afghanistan so that it can do a course correction. And, if it is serious about religious freedoms then it needs to examinethe record of Modi's India and some of its EU allies that are moving to curtail religious freedoms of its Muslim citizens.

She is minister of Pakistan not for the world. India is not yard stick for comparing like apples and oranges. She should speak about only her country and its religious rights.

Outpouring of disgruntled pilgrims from India to other parts of the world are raising voice against oppression against religion in India.
Pakistan situated a stones throw away from a billion or more oppressed people flirting with extremism does not leave much options to remain silent on the issue.

Keep blabbering about others will not help your cause

What cause?
Pointing out the obvious hypocrisy of the post modern lobbyists dream of United States of America tumbling towards a Divided State of Embarrassment?

Pakistan will forward the refugees from India in every direction as received if your pathetic attempt at fascism fails.

 

[Srinivas]

Seems like common sense isnt very common in India that the indian PDF members always show that they cant add 2 and 2!

Cause a couple of localized incidents in India doesn't equate to what pretty much amounts to state policy when it comes to religion in Pakistan.

The Indian state has a terrible record of religious intolerance.

Religious and communal violence has always been a tool used by its clergy and politicians to keep a party always oppressed in the country.

Hindus are being constitutionally discriminated against in India in a great irony of the 21st century while Muslims face shameful stereotypes along with Sikhs and Christians.

The great 'sell' of 'inclusive' India has outlived its market value. As more and more investors point out the massive cause of concern in human rights in India.

Pretty sure there is only one 'investor' interested in what you're selling mate.

We're not trying to pull the wool over anyone.
