    This is the latest in a series of unprovoked attacks on Ahmadi Muslims in Pakistan with more than 100 killed since 1984 and 6 this year up to time of this latest atrocity. All these attacks are a result of the unjustifiable campaign against the community led by the extremists in Pakistan who have been preaching hatred against the community and have declared Ahmadis as legitimate targets to be killed. The Government to Pakistan has taken a very lenient stance towards the planners and perpetrators of these acts and not provided protection to the citizens. We should condemn these acts and send a strong message to the Government of Pakistan in this regard.Recommend

    I am very sorry
    when we avoid reality
    and facts relating to the circumstances.

    It is very hard to disregard this specific fact that
    we, here in our country many unique islamic clerics
    who have no example of them in knowledge and speeches
    Talban despite of their best efforts never success to miss guide
    any muslim to participate in insurgency.

    The considerable fact is that
    in home corruption is compelling loyal people adopting the way leading to not favorable future.

    Create job opportunities,
    justice must be avail every one
    fair play in every institution
    there should be no feudalism or feudal lords
    bribery must be remove from the face of the Islamic society.

    You will see result
    it will bring peace and prosperity in our country.Recommend
