Good to see such protests and highlighted here. Only with awareness and pressure, the rulers wake up from their slumber and do something.

Our elected leaders did not take to the streets with Christians. I suppose they have made some vague, meaningless statements & hollow promises to make victims feel better. Absolutely barbaric action and totally shameful reaction.

Pakistanis are very concerned about the welfare of Muslims in India though nothing wrong with that but they got to look inwards too.

How many Muslims joined these protests? It is the binding responsibility of all the majority Muslims to raise their voice against attrocities committed against the minorities. But if we were really Muslims!

I support the protest in favor of minorities and condemn the act of barbarism. The government have to bring the culprits into court of justice.

Dear protesters, Do not let the heat of protest cool down, till some concrete steps implemented on ground including compensation and resettlement for those misplaced due to victimization.

Why don't muslim Pakistani's protest on the streets against the blasphemy law and kiling of the minorities ? Everyone can show sympathy online. Thousands show up for IK jalshas but none for the minorities ?
