India has strongly condemned the reported demolition of a century-old Hindu temple in Pakistan’s Punjab province, calling it a disturbing attack on a minority place of worship. Minority representatives and local residents alleged that the temple was razed to make way for a madrassa on or near the temple land. India said the incident reflected an “alarming” failure by Pakistani authorities to protect religious heritage and safeguard places of worship belonging to minorities. The strong reaction came on September 2 as concerns grew over the reported demolition and the protection of minority religious sites in Pakistan. (PC: India Today)
