A group of 171 Pakistani Hindus has sought asylum in India due to hardships faced by them in Pakistan. According to reports, a batch of 171 Hindus arrived in Jodhpur from Pakistan on Monday. Talking to reporters, the leader of group, Chetan Ram, who is the headman of his village, said that they were facing problems in Pakistan, therefore they didn’t want to go back and the Indian government should give them asylum. They have been accommodated temporarily in a temple campus until proper arrangements are made, the Indian media reported.
President of Seemant Lok Sangthan Singh Sodha, an organization fighting for the rehabilitation of Hindu migrants, said that he had intimated the chief minister about this, and expected him to direct the administration to make some arrangements for them. This group of Hindus had reportedly left the country in disguise, not disclosing their departure even to their relatives.

  1. These are genuine asylum seekers in their own country.India should respect their wishes.India should also clearly understand that opening their borders to Pakistan is importing terrorism in its purest form-not only that you will open the flood gates to paks drug trade.

  2. india should also grant asylum to all those muslims who feel suffocated by the kind of muslims who praise the murderer of salman taseer

  3. It is a very sad development and we should thank our religious monsters for making life difficult for followers of other religion. Shame on us.

  4. It is ok for India to consider granting asylum to some of these people. Now, how does the Govt. of India plan on doing a background or security check. Is India unwittingly garlanding and welcoming the next batch of 'Kasabs' at the border?
