​Rising Attacks on the Christian Community in India: A Call for Urgent Action.


Subheading: Recent incidents of harassment, vandalism, and intimidation highlight the growing threat to religious minorities in India.


India, a nation known for its diversity and pluralism, is witnessing alarming incidents against its Christian community. Recent reports indicate destruction of Christmas decorations, threats to worshippers, and harassment during religious celebrations. These actions are part of a troubling trend targeting religious minorities, including Muslims and Sikhs, signaling a broader erosion of constitutional protections and civil liberties.


Attacks on Religious Freedom:

The vandalism of churches and festive decorations is more than just property damage—it represents an attack on the freedom of religion guaranteed by the Indian Constitution. Religious festivals should foster community and peace, yet extremists are turning them into occasions of fear and intimidation.


Impact on Minority Communities:

Such incidents create an atmosphere of insecurity among minority populations. When people cannot celebrate their faith openly, it threatens the very essence of democratic and secular values. The Christian community, now increasingly targeted, faces psychological trauma, social marginalization, and a direct threat to their cultural and religious practices.


A Call to the Indian Government:

It is imperative for the Indian government to uphold the rule of law and protect vulnerable communities. Law enforcement agencies must take decisive action against perpetrators and ensure the safety and rights of all citizens, regardless of religion. The failure to act not only undermines India’s constitutional promises but also damages its global reputation as a secular democracy.


A Call to Religious Leaders:

Spiritual and community leaders across faiths must unequivocally condemn attacks on minorities. Promoting interfaith dialogue and mutual respect is essential to prevent further polarization and violence.


Global Responsibility:

The United Nations and international human rights organizations must take notice and hold accountable those who infringe upon religious freedoms. Protecting minority communities is not only a matter of domestic governance but a global obligation for human rights and justice.


Conclusion:

The safety, dignity, and religious freedom of the Christian community—and all minorities—must be preserved without compromise. Immediate action is required to uphold India’s constitutional values and ensure a society where faith and culture can flourish without fear.

Pakistan-China Friendship: A Bond Forged in Trust and Loyalty The friendship between Pakistan and China stands as a glowing example of diplomatic harmony, mutual respect, and unwavering support. Described as “higher than the mountains, deeper than the oceans, and sweeter than honey,” this relationship has only grown stronger with the passage of time. Historical Background The roots of Pakistan-China friendship trace back to the early 1950s, shortly after the People’s Republic of China was founded. At a time when the global community was hesitant to recognize the new Chinese government, Pakistan took a bold and principled stance by extending diplomatic recognition to China in 1951. This early gesture laid the foundation for a relationship based on trust and mutual support. A symbolic yet significant example of this early bond is the story of a gifted aircraft by Pakistan to China during its initial years. This plane, marked with the words “Courtesy of Pakistan”, is reporte...
