Visas issued to 81 Hindu pilgrims to visit shrines in Pakistan

Not that important that would require a visit.
How can you say. Hindus worship different gods amongst themselves too and each region has a god that is revered highly among people of that region while other regions of Indian controlled parts have their own Gods.

Keeping this in mind Hindus would also have different places of worship. It is obvious that Ram Jhamboomi and other temples are not the only ones revered.
 
After they return back to india they will be branded as traitors by hindu supremacists.
Funny thing is these same hindu supremacists spend more time on our forums and websites than they do on their own.

I know about Hinduism there is no requirement to visit any specific temple.
 
Are they any holy hindu sites in pakistan except for katsraj temple?

The whole of Pakistan is a holy land for Hindus. Here are some places

Lahore - City of Rama's son Luv

Kasur- City of Rama's son Kush

River Indus - Origin of the name Hinduism

Sharada Peeth in AJK

Hingol - Pakistan's Baluchistan

According to Hindu beliefs, Sati, the spouse of Shiva, burnt herself to death after her father Daksha disrespected her and did not invite her partner to a feast.

This angered Shiva who went on a rampage in the world carrying along with him Sati's body. Vishnu then intervened and used his powers to calm Shiva down. He then cut the body of Sati into 51 pieces, which fell to earth in different places.

Giyan Maharaj, a pundit in Khipro, says these 51 places are called Shakti Peethas and became sacred places. Hindus believe the head of the goddess fell in Hinglaj, thus making it the most revered place of pilgrimage.

Trip of a lifetime

All believers, Giyan says, have to go to Hinglaj, which is built in a cave along the bank of River Hingol. This trip along with good deeds elevates the soul, which eventually escapes the birth cycle and reaches god. The soul is then ready for reincarnation inside a new body.

Veersi of the Hinglaj organising committee says most Hindus have come to know about this holy place only recently since the arrival of social media. If visa conditions in coming to Pakistan are relaxed, thousands of Hindus from across the world will come to the place, he says.

For any Hindu, a visit to Hinglaj is the ultimate pilgrimage, but very few like to take the challenge.

@SirHatesALot is right, there isn't any important hindu temple from religious point of view in Pakistan like there is one for sikhs. I bet most of them are tourists or maybe hindus who migrated from pakistan after 1947.
