190 Hindus living in the Sindh province of Pakistan had their journey to India halted by Pakistani authorities after they gave an unsatisfactory explanation for why they were visiting the neighboring nation. Several Hindu families, including women and children, arrived at the Wagah border on Tuesday to travel to India on visas for religious pilgrimage. However, because they were unable to provide a valid justification for their desire to travel to India, Pakistani immigration authorities did not clear them.
The story quoted sources to claim that visiting Hindu families typically obtained visas for a pilgrimage and then stayed in India for a considerable amount of time. According to the research, a significant portion of Hindus from Pakistan was currently nomadically residing in the regions of Rajasthan and Delhi. A study by the Centre for Peace and Justice Pakistan found that 22,10,566 members of Pakistan's minority Hindu community reside there, making up only 1.18 percent of the nation's 18,68,90,601 overall population.
Hindus are one of Pakistan's poorer minorities, and they are little represented in the nation's legislative body. In Sindh province, where they share a common culture, language, and way of life with Muslims, the majority of Pakistan's Hindu community is located. They frequently allege that extremists have harassed them.
