Aasia Bibi case

Following the verdict, a wave of protests swept across the country. Workers and supporters of religious parties blocked the major throughways. It is unfortunate that no political party in Pakistan has ever tried to eradicate religious intolerance from the country. Instead, many parties have used religion for political point scoring.

It is hoped that all political parties will work together with a broader consensus to eliminate religious intolerance from society.Syed Hamza AhmedConnecticutUSA
