The document notes that “Pakistan’s legal framework continues to lack laws that protect minorities and prohibit forced conversions. This has not prevented, however, the development of some groups defending the rights of minorities that manage, through national and transnational channels, to have a certain impact on international public opinion.”
But the most worrying thing, he indicates, “is the increasingly Islamocentric education, which encourages discrimination and negative attitudes towards members of religious minorities from primary school onwards, a situation that the Single National Curriculum has contributed to exacerbating.”
Therefore, the outlook for religious freedom in Pakistan “remains negative.”
