ISLAMABAD—Parliamentarians Commission on Human Rights (PCHR) is
organizing a one-day conference on rights of minorities here Tuesday.
People from different strata including legislators, minority
politicians, human rights activists, religious leaders and
representatives of civil society organizations and media would
participate in the conference. The minorities issues are complex and
deep rooted in our country. International political developments,
ideological complexities, constitutional segregation and week
institutional response are largely responsible for minorities in
Pakistan.
In this context, Parliamentarians, Commission for Human Rights (PCHR)
has conducted a nation wide consultative exercise to identify major
issues of minorities and find a way forward to end all sort of
discrimination against minorities by adopting a collective and
consensual approach..—Agencies |
