HYDERABAD, Oct 31: Samaj Sevak Congress general secretary Kamla Devi has said the government is not treating minorities fairly. In a statement issued here on Monday, she said government agencies were not allowing news about minorities to be published which had exposed the false claim of treating minorities equally.

She blamed that the government was providing jobs to Muslims and was not considering minorities at all.

She criticized the Muttahida Qaumi Movement and the nationalists for ignoring the Hindu minority.

Ms Devi said that the Sindh government had failed to probe kidnapping of Hindu women and the murder of Kanwal through a high-level committee and did not take any action against any one for delaying the inquiry.

She said the killers of Kanwal had not been arrested even two months after the murder.

She demanded that the government should arrest the killers of Kanwal within 15 days.

It may be mentioned that Ms Kanwal had been found dead in Hyderabad Darul Aman.

She said that members of the minority community would stage a long march from the Ram temple in Tando Allahyar to the Sindh Governor’s House.—PPI
