Patron-in-chief of Pakistan Hindu Council (PHC) Dr. Ramesh Kumar has rejected the negative propaganda and shown extreme anger over fabricated news reports appearing in various Indian media outlets.
In a statement issued, Dr. Ramesh Kumar said, “Various Indian reports claiming that Pakistan refuses to give food to the Hindu community amid coronavirus lockdown are baseless and fabricated.”
Dr. Ramesh Kumar asserted that the Hindu council was closely monitoring the ongoing situation and has not received any such complaint, as claimed by the Indian media.
He further said that Pakistan Hindu Council was also distributing rations to deserving families, without any religious discrimination, adding that this critical time demands everyone to join hands in the fight against the coronavirus.
“However, it is very unfortunate that some elements are trying to fulfill their vested interest by indulging in such negative activities,” he regretted.
He said, “This is time to promote tolerance, harmony, and love to all, rather than spreading hatred and misunderstandings among the society.”
Dr. Ramesh Kumar also urged the citizens to take precautionary measures while expressing views regarding coronavirus outbreak and other humanitarian crises.
So far, coronavirus has claimed the lives of almost 45 people in Pakistan and has affected more than 2800 people. Punjab remained the worst affected province from coronavirus, followed by Sindh.
