Did you know?
Pakistan not only made of Islam people but also the Hindus. They make up nearly 2 per cent of Pakistan’s total population. While the Hindu community has made their presence felt in the country, including the government and the parliament, Hinduism remains the second largest religion in Pakistan after Islam. Pakistan is the fifth largest country that is home to the Hindu community. By 2050, it will become the fourth largest country containing Hindu population.
This actually shows that diverse people can live in harmony and they don’t see caste or religion but just the people.

Earlier in March 2018, Krishna Kumari, member of the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP), became the first Hindu woman elected to the Senate. She belongs to the lowest rung of the Hindu caste system prevalent in both Pakistan and India.
“I will continue to work for the rights of the oppressed people, especially for the empowerment of women, their health and education,” she said after winning the election. Kumari, who was born and raised in a remote district, is an avid advocate of education which eventually helped her earn a university degree.
It is empowering to see people looking beyond the caste and religion to support one another. More power to you all!
