Islamabad: Dr Ramesh Kumar Vankwani, head of Pakistan Hindu Council (PHC), has refuted false propaganda by Indian media of Hindus being discriminated in Pakistan amid coronavirus crisis.
Indian media, recently, has been readily showcasing false video footages and highlighting the ‘discrimination and marginalization’ of Hindus in Pakistan amid coronavirus crisis.
“News reports claiming that Pakistan refuses to give food to Hindus as COVID-19 rages are baseless and fabricated,” said Dr Ramesh Kumar in a statement.
Vankwani noted that Pakistan Hindu Council (PHC) has been monitoring the situation and no such complaints have been filed.
“This is time to promote tolerance, harmony and love to all, rather than spreading hatred and misunderstandings among the society. However, it is very unfortunate that some elements are trying to fulfil their vested interest by indulging in such negative activities,” he stated.
According to Dr. Kumar, PHC has been actively involved in nation-wide ration distribution drive to assist needy families who have been facing dire financial circumstances due to coronavirus lockdown.
