A minority rights march was held on Monday, Aug. 11, from the YMCA to the Sindh Assembly to demand that the government intervene to stop forcible marriage conversions of young girls.According to them, there was a growing trend of kidnapping school going minority girls and getting them converted and married by force. Christians, Hindus, Sikhs and Muslims turned out in full force to ask that the government also return the Christian schools that had been taken away from them under the guise of nationalization. They further asked for an end to the labeling of Christians as sanitary workers, and asked that low income minorities be afforded the full rights available to the Muslim communities.
