Pakistan has become notorious for religious persecution. The shocking incidents of young non-Muslim girls being converted to Islam have become a daily occurrence in the country.
Every year, around 1,000 young Sindhi Hindu girls between the age of 12 and 28 are abducted, forcibly married and converted to Islam.
''Hindus, Sikhs, and Christians in Pakistan have been constantly under attack by the Islamist fundamentalists. The attacks are often said to be orchestrated by Islamists leaders who enjoy patronage and protection by the Pakistani government,'' wrote another Twitter user.
