Lahore High Court Chief Justice Khawaja Mohammad Sharif has sparked outrage for reportedly saying that Hindus were responsible for financing acts of terrorism in Pakistan.

Dawn editorial makes this inappropriate statement by a chief judge of a state high court a shameful statement.No lea way can be given to such culprits and purveyors of hatred. My hats off to editors of Dawn.Shame on this Judge.He does not belong on the bench.He belongs on the other side in shackles.This statement itself is an impeachable offense in any society.
Shame Shame Shame Khawaja.

Thanks Dawn.com

Two stories caught my eyes in the paper today.

One story
was about a woman born Hindu named S Mangarma 27 in Malaysia .At age of 7 she was placed in a children's home in Penanag state ,where her name was changed to a Muslim name and she was stuck with her Muslim ID .Later on she found out that she was a Hindu and lived her life as a Hindu.She married a Hindu and have two children. Inter religious marriages are not recognised by the Islamic majority Malaysia. She wants to be declared a Hindu and reclaim her status as a Hindu.This has also de legitimised her marriage as well as her children are not recognised as she can not claim to be children of her Hindu Husband .Civil authorities would not recognise her marriage without clearance from Sharia court which run parallel to the civil courts in this society .This makes mockery of the civil law.Minority Chinese and Hindu's are victims of this dual legal process.

Second story

Take the case of Pram Sri Mai, a married Hindu woman, whose application for a computerised national identity card was turned down by the National Database and Registration Authority which even charged her with having an illicit relationship with a man and bearing illegitimate children.

Had it not been for the timely intervention of the Supreme Court, Mai could perhaps have ended up in deep legal trouble. Perhaps Nadra’s position, though wholly unjustified, was based on the fact that nuptials in the Hindu community are not recorded at the time of marriage.

Thanks to Dawn.com for publishing stories which bring the inequalities and injustices of the Pakistani system to light.

Todays Dawn has pictures and story on 42 hindu couples marrying in a mass wedding.

Every time i become desperate in my thinking about Pakistan a ray of hope comes to brighten my being.
This is such a story .
In Karachi 42 hindu couples got married in YMCA grounds.
What a joy to see this well photographed event hosted by hindu association.If somehow these people do not get totally aleinated from Pakistani society there is hope that understanding between minorities of pakistan and the power structures what may be can be developed and alienations of these native sons can be eliminated.

Dawn 8-27-2009 Hindu farmers homeless and without pay for ten years

This Dawn story is intriguing.This happens everyday in Pakistan .This is happening to poor Hindu laborers who were promised land in lew of wages .Now land lord has disappeared and there is no recourse for the poor family of 14 , they have been evicted from land and home.

Pakistan fails to protect its weakest .Merciful Islam has failed to protect the weak .The Story in dawn shows last signs of hope in this country which can be best defined by cleptocracy of all government officials,police,military,Land lords,Taliban,Mullah's.Judiciary has been agent of all these groups may be can be considered one of the parties.Sunny and Punjabi dominance has also reduced the rights of other minorities.Baloch have suffered terribly in sixty years .

MY Question is can anybody help ?
