PAKISTAN HINDU COUNCIL TO MOVE UN AGAINST FORCED CONVERSION OF HINDU GIRLS RELIGION ! 
Perturbed over the reports of forced conversions of Hindu girls in Pakistan and a fresh spate of atrocities on the Hindu minority community of Pakistan, which also forced many of them to leave their country and seek asylum in India in the recent past, Pakistan Hindu Council has 
decided to move the United Nations and has also held a meeting with Hussain Haroon, representative of Pakistan in the UN to appraise him of the issues faced by the Hindu population of Pakistan.

Patron, Pakistan Hindu Council Ramesh Vankwani told TOI over phone from Karachi on Saturday that a delegation of Council met Haroon on Friday evening at his residence and told him how minorities were discriminated and why many Hindus were forced to leave their country.

He said the council had demanded immediate action in cases of forced conversation of religion.

He said the forced conversion was an unbearable act for the community and the Pakistan government should enact a law to curb the practice.

The council had also demanded from government for adequate security measures to safeguard the property and lives of Hindus and an early action for redressal of the problems faced by them, he said.

He said Haroon had assured them to take up the issues faced by the Hindu community to those who matter in government machinery and other quarters, besides taking up the issue at international forums.

"We are hopeful of some positive outcome of our meeting with Haroon," he added.
