As under the Taliban rule, In Afghanistan, it is forced to identify the minority Sikhs and Hindus by wearing yellow armbands that is exactly same as the Nazis made the Jews wear yellow badges so that they were completely forced out of the country due to imposed discrimination. Currently, the Islamic State likely Pakistani elements are actively murdering them which is according to a report by various reliable news agencies.
On 1st July, In the eastern city of Jalalabad, there were killed 19 people in a blast in which Sikhs and Hindus were included, a provincial government official said.
when a convoy of Sikhs and Hindus were going to meet Afghanistan’s President Ashraf Ghani, at that time on their way a suicide bomber was targeted.
According to a Press report, in the explosion, 10 Sikhs and 7 Hindus were killed and around 20 people were injured in the blast.
Apart from this, According to a report, The Islamic State explained about this attack via an online news agency, it gave a statement that in the past few years, a strong presence had been established in the Islamic state fighters so, a blast was also targeted on a convoy of Hindu-Sikh in Jalalabad.
If we consider another news source as news agency ANI which explained about this painful attack in Jalalabad that the explosion was supposedly executed by the Taliban under the support of Pakistan’s intelligence agency Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI).
Besides this, the other new sources claimed about the blasts on Sikhs-Hindus in Jalalabad that this attack was targeted by Pakistani terrorists under the patronage of ISI across the border in Afghanistan.
As in the conservative Muslim countries, there have always been suffered Sikhs and Hindus worldwide discrimination for a long time and it has been regularly targeted by Islamic extremists and if we talk about 1990’s, it is considered that in Afghanistan there are more than 80,000 population of Sikhs and Hindus but if we look at the index of today’s population it is very less as compared to before as it has remained only approx a 1,000.
According to a report from News agency Ani that there are extremely bad conditions of Sikhs and Hindus even in Pakistan and particularly across the border of Afghanistan. Besides this, if we consider a point in which a prominent Sikh religious leader Charanjit Singh Sagar was murdered in the Peshawar city in Pakistan a month ago than in Pakistan minority Sikh and Hindu community remains a frequent target of the Pakistani Taliban and many of these families have been forced to migrate to Europe and India.
