In a heart-wrenching incident, Maya, a minor Hindu girl from Bagho Kohli, was abducted and forcibly converted to Islam. The conversion reportedly took place at the hands of Peer Agha Jaan Sarhandi at the Dargah Gulzar-e-Khalil in Samaro. Following the conversion, Maya was married off to a Muslim man, Muhammad Ramzan.
This tragic event has once again highlighted the ongoing issues faced by the Hindu community in Pakistan, particularly the abduction and forced conversion of young girls. Such incidents not only violate basic human rights but also inflict deep psychological and emotional scars on the victims and their families.
The Hindu community in Sindh is deeply distressed by this incident, calling for immediate action and justice for Maya. Human rights activists and community leaders have condemned the abduction and forced conversion, urging the authorities to intervene and ensure the safe return of the girl to her family.
This case underscores the urgent need for stricter laws and enforcement mechanisms to protect minority communities in Pakistan. The Hindu community, along with various human rights organizations, is demanding:
Immediate Investigation: A thorough and impartial investigation into the abduction and forced conversion of Maya.
Legal Action: Prosecution of those involved in the kidnapping, forced conversion, and underage marriage of Maya.
Protection for Minorities: Enhanced protective measures for minority communities, particularly young girls, to prevent such incidents in the future.
The Sindh Renaissance calls on the Pakistani government to uphold the rights of all its citizens and to take concrete steps to ensure the safety and security of minority communities.
