Sindhi political activists recently gathered outside the United Nations headquarters in New York and slammed Pakistan for “targeting minorities” like Hindus and exploiting the natural resources of the Sindh province.

They held a demonstration during the 54th Session of the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva. It was joined by Baloch, Pashtuns and Kashmiri activists, reports ANI.

The protesters were seen holding banners that read “Pakistan Stop Ethnic Cleansing of Sindhi Hindus”, “Cutting Karoonjhar is a crime against nature, Sindh and Humanity” and “Millions of Sindhi flood victims remain abandoned”.

The protesters were seen putting up pictures of Sindhi political activists who were abducted, tortured and killed by Pakistani secret agencies.

Pictures of Sindhi Hindu girls were also showcased who were forcibly abducted and converted to Islam, reported ANI.

Lakhu Luhana, the Secretary General of the World Sindhi Congress told ANI that the state is “collapsing” and the human rights situation is worsening in the region.

Luhana said, “There are 1000 issues. What is happening in Sindh, as the state is collapsing? There is literally no other institution, other than intelligence. They are becoming more aggressive, more ruthless, more cruel. So the human rights situation is every front is worsening. The forced abductions, enforced disappearance, forced conversions of Sindhi Hindu girls”.

Luhana further added that the Pakistan government is grabbing the lands of poor people and the locals have been completely abandoned amid situations of malnutrition and poverty.

He also called upon the international community to put pressure on Pakistan to stop its atrocities in the region.
