Sindh, Pakistan – February 28, 2025: The grim reality of forced conversions in Sindh continues to haunt the Hindu community, with yet another heartbreaking case emerging from Jacobabad. Sarika, a Hindu mother of three, was abducted and forcibly converted to Islam yesterday by Muhammad Azim Rind from Lashari Mohalla. Her husband, Premchand, has filed a case in hopes of justice, but for many Hindus in Sindh, justice remains an elusive dream. Sarika’s children now wait for a mother who may never return, and her family stands devastated by a system that has consistently failed to protect minority rights.
A Recurring Injustice
The tragedy of Sarika is not an isolated incident but part of a larger, systemic issue. For years, the Hindu community in Sindh has faced abductions, forced conversions, and marriages of young women. Despite numerous cases reaching the courts, the outcomes overwhelmingly favor the perpetrators, leaving Hindu families helpless and broken.“Another forced conversion. Another silence.” This has become the grim reality for minorities in Sindh, where legal protection is rare, and justice is often denied.
The Shattered Lives Behind the Headlines
Sarika’s case is a painful reminder of the human cost of these atrocities. Her children, robbed of their mother, represent the innocent victims of a cycle of violence and oppression. Her husband, Premchand, clings to hope, but the odds are stacked against him in a legal system where minority voices are marginalized.Every forced conversion is more than just a statistic—it is a family shattered, a community silenced, and a life forever altered.
A Call to Action for Global Justice
The plight of Hindus in Sindh demands immediate global attention and action. Human rights organizations, governments, and the international community must hold Pakistan accountable for the systemic targeting of minorities.Forced conversions are not merely a violation of religious freedom; they are an attack on the very fabric of human dignity and equality. Turning a blind eye to these atrocities only emboldens the perpetrators and perpetuates the suffering of vulnerable communities.
The Time to Act is Now
Sarika’s story is one of countless others that remain untold. The world must wake up and take serious steps to address the ongoing human rights violations against Hindus in Pakistan. It is a moral imperative to demand justice, protect minority communities, and ensure that no family has to endure the pain of losing a loved one to forced conversions.Justice for Sarika. Justice for Sindh’s Hindus. Justice for humanity.#JusticeForSarika #StopForcedConversions #ProtectMinorities #HumanRightsCrisis #EndReligiousPersecution
