Swami Vigyananand, founder of the World Hindu Foundation, reveals shocking details of Pakistan’s relentless attacks on Hindu temples and minorities amid rising tensions. He exposes the deteriorating conditions faced by Hindus and Christians in the country in an exclusive interview with ANI, emphasizing the urgent need for global intervention.
Swami Vigyananand expresses concern about the ongoing threats to minorities in Pakistan, highlighting the alarming decline in the Hindu population, which now stands at less than one to one and a half per cent. He dates this back to the post-partition era, citing the first riot in Bangladesh and the subsequent marginalization of minorities.
The Global Chairman criticizes Pakistan’s approach to heritage preservation, claiming that the destruction of Hindu temples is eroding Islamabad’s own history. He draws parallels between Egypt’s benefit from preserving the Pyramids and Pakistan’s disregard for its cultural heritage.
Swami Vigyananand, in a call for immediate action, urges the international Hindu community to band together and exert pressure on global bodies such as the United Nations and the European Union. He emphasizes the importance of protecting the rights of minorities, particularly Hindus and Christians, in countries such as Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Malaysia.
Swami Vigyananand’s revelations, as the World Hindu Congress takes place in Thailand, highlight the importance of addressing religious persecution and protecting minority rights globally.
