A growing intolerance

The Hindu  

Pardon the plugging of a piece by Pakistani writer Mohammed Hanif that appeared in Dawn last week. So targeted are the Shias that many wonder if Pakistan’s founding father Mohammad Ali Jinnah — a Shia — would have been able to live there today. That is how the Rinkle Kumari case — of the girl who was allegedly kidnapped by the Pakistan People’s Party parliamentarian, Mian Mithu, and forcibly married to his son — was different. The proverbial last straw on the camel’s back was the kidnapping and forced conversion of girls, says vice-chairman of Human Rights Commission of Pakistan, Amar Nath. Harris Gazdar of the Karachi-based Collective for Social Science Research maintains that Hindus — particularly the most prominent ‘Vanyas’ — are generally known to be moneyed.
