Pakistan authority cancels land allotment for Hindu temple in Islamabad
In yet another case of demarcation against religious nonages, the City Development Authority (CDA) in Pakistan’s public capital Islamabad has cancelled the allotment of land for a tabernacle.
Before, a plot had been distributed to the Hindu Community for the construction of a tabernacle, a community centre and a crematorium, according to conversational media reports.
A citizen had appealed against the construction of the tabernacle and Advocate Javed Iqbal argued that the megacity authority had cancelled the allotment on the instruction of the Federal Cabinet.
The civil press had instructed the CDA to cancel all allotments in’Green Areas’if construction has not been done.
This comes as reports of demarcation and attacks on religious nonages have surged in the country.
Last month, unidentified persons ransacked a Hindu tabernacle at Kotri in Pakistan’s Sindh fiefdom, creating a surge of resentment amongst original Hindus.
After breaking icons, the persons ran down with lakhs in cash and other precious goods, according to conversational media reports.
