Pakistan was founded to protect Muslims from Hindus — and has spent 75 years systematically eliminating the Hindus, Christians, and Sikhs who remained.
In this structured advocacy presentation, researcher Rahul Sur walks through a formal complaint being submitted to the United Nations Human Rights Council, documenting what he frames as a slow but relentless genocide of minorities in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. The legal framing is precise: he distinguishes between the physical element (disappearances, forced conversions, temple destructions, targeted occupational discrimination against Christians) and genocidal intent (state patronage, police complicity, judicial failure), meeting the definitional thresholds of the UN Genocide Convention.
The evidence is drawn from Pakistani newspapers, BBC reports, New York Times coverage, and academic research — not Indian sources. A classified advertisement seeking sewer workers reading “Only Christians need apply” becomes a synecdoche for a society that has institutionalised the degradation of non-Muslims into its labour market. Sur’s closing observation carries the weight of the entire presentation: a state founded explicitly against Hindus has never changed that founding ideology — and the numbers tell the story that politics refuses to.
