It also shows details of how hundreds of churches were burned to the ground in the Manipur incident this year. The dossier says that dozens of historical mosques in India are under threat and over 1,600 mosques are facing a media campaign.

Speaking at the occasion, Kakar said that India was promoting instability in the region. He, however, added that Pakistan is emerging as a responsible state and will continue to play a positive role for world peace.

Kakar said Hindutva’s emergence is a ‘challenge’ and RSS is continuously targeting minorities in India. He added that minorities enjoy ‘complete protection’ in Pakistan. – INP
