| Minister for Religious Affairs Ijaz-ul-Haq told the National Assembly on Saturday that minorities in the country had full freedom and protection. âIf there are incidents where minorities were unjustly treated, they will be investigated and necessary action will be taken against the culprits,â said Mr Haq in response to the call attention notice raised by MNAs Gian Singh, Sher Akbar Khan, Devdas and Chaudhry Haroon Qaiser, in which the issues of violence against minorities and the desecration of holy places in Karachi, rural areas of Sindh and Toba Tek Singh were mentioned. The minister said that this matter should be referred to the ministry for minorities but that the government strongly believed in upholding minority rights. |
