Pakistan should take care of its minorities: MEA on reports of Hindu woman's killing

New Delhi: Pakistan should take care of its minorities and fulfil its responsibility of keeping them safe and secure, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said on Thursday against the backdrop of reports that a Hindu woman was allegedly beheaded in that country.

Responding to a question on the reported killing, MEA spokesperson Arindam Bagchi said he does not have a detailed report on the specific incident.

”…In the past too we have said that Pakistan should take care of its minorities and fulfil its responsibility of their safety, security, and well-being. I would like to reiterate that,” he said, adding that he would not be able to comment on an individual case.

A Hindu woman was allegedly murdered in Pakistan’s Sinjhoro town on Wednesday. The 40-year-old woman was beheaded, reports said quoting a Pakistani senator.
