Radio Pakistan blames Hindus for discrimination against all communities | Though India is today looked upon by the world community for its democratic values and social fabric where over a billion people of diverse cultures co-exit in harmony and participate in each other’s festivals, broadcasters of Radio Pakistan are sceptical about this well-known
reality. Radio Pakistan in its Punjabi Darbar programme has blamed the Hindus
for discrimination not only against the Sikhs but also Muslims and Christians.
It has further said that Sikhs have been migrating from India because of atrocities
by Hindus. People living in the border villages view such propaganda-based programmes
as attempts to spread communal disharmony and hatred among Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs,
and Christians. Prakash Singh Bhatti, a Sikh politician described these allegations
`false’ and `malicious’. “In our country Sikhs have always been given equal respect.
India is a democratic country. The Sikhs have been elected as the President, Prime
Minister, Chief of Army Staff with great honour.” “The whole world is now aware
of the tactics, thoughts and the thinking of Pakistan for different religions.
Today, all the countries are standing together to fight terrorism but Pakistan
is the only one, which always encourages terrorism. The ISI agency of Pakistan
sends its agents to various countries to spread terrorism. The whole world has
condemned the 26/11 attacks. The Pakistan is not ready to accept the facts even
after getting all the proofs. All the newspaper across the world condemn Pakistan’s
act, “ Bhatti stated. “To harm India, Pakistan has long been misdirecting the
young Sikhs of Punjab in the name of religion,” Bhatti further added. Under the
Indian Constitution, all citizens irrespective of their caste, colour, religious
faith have the Right to Equality, Right to live with dignity and practice one’s
religion, and Right to freedom of speech and expression. These are fundamental
rights, available to all Indian citizens, and enforceable in the court of law
by any citizen. And, Radio Pakistan must remember India is led by Sardar Manmohan
Singh, a Sikh by religion and Indian by heart. Pakistan doesn’t seem to have such
a constitution that allows equality for all. The minorities are usually found
crying for justice and suffer discrimination. People in the border areas ask,
if Radio Pakistan believes that Pakistan is a haven of communal harmony and justice
for all, why is it today looked upon as a haven of terrorists, why Sikhs in the
Swat Valley suffer atrocities. |
