HIGHLIGHTS
Pakistan has once again slammed India for its treatment of religious minorities. Attacking Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government over the growing cases of cow lynchings in India, the ruling party of Pakistan, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) posted a tweet comparing Pakistan's Prime Minister Imran Khan with his Indian counterpart Narendra Modi.
- Imran Khan's party compares the two leaders' treatment of religious minorities through an image
- PM Imran Khan believes in humanity and minority rights, the tweet says
- In India, minorities are murdered in the name of religion, it alleges
The tweet compares the leaders' treatment of religious minorities through an image. "Two countries, two leaders, two days, two news" reads the image. Making the case for Imran Khan's secular leanings the image shows a news clipping of recent decision by the Pakistani PM to declare the ancient Hindu religious site of Panj Tirath in Peshawar as national heritage.
Under the column for Indian Prime Minister Modi is the headline "Muslim man lynched to death over an allegation of cow theft in India".
The headline is a reference to an incident that took place in Bihar's Araria district on December 29. A 55-year-old man, identified as Mohammad Kabul, was beaten to death by an irate mob of around 300 people over suspicion of cattle theft.
The stark difference is further hammered in through the caption of the post, "Prime Minister Imran Khan believes in humanity and minority rights. Kartarpur corridor is proof of this. While in India minorities are murdered in the name of religion. This is the difference which makes Imran Khan an esteemed leader."
The Imran Khan government has continued to compare the treatment of minorities in Pakistan and India. In December, the Pakistani prime minister had said minorities would be treated as equal citizens in "Naya Pakistan", "unlike what is happening in India".
Days before that, when a controversy brewed in India over actor Naseeruddin Shah's commentson rising religious intolerance in the country, Khan said he had resolved to "show" Narendra Modi government how rights of every countryman are preserved.
"We will show the Modi government how to treat minorities...Even in India, people are saying that minorities are not being treated as equal citizens," he had said in reference to Naseeruddin Shah's statement.
Indians across fields, from Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh, MP Asaduddin Owaisi, cricketer Mohammad Kaif and even Naseeruddin Shah himself had slammed Khan for his jibe.
Khan has also previously called the "ruling party" of India -- the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) -- "anti-Muslim and anti-Pakistan".
"The ruling party [of India] has an anti-Muslim, anti-Pakistan approach," said Imran in a recent interview to a top US daily. He said India dismissed his suggestion of peace talks because of upcoming elections. "Let’s hope that after the election is over, we can again resume talks with India," he had said.

It's the stance of the ruling party and it's Chairman, who happens to be the PM. It should refrain from making a such comments.This is not a PM Imran Khan Twitter handle, rather a PTI, the political party Twitter account, run independently...

That's perceived by a few dumb clowns. It doesn't matter. The worst name one could have is being associated with terrorism, sadly or fortunately we are just victims of it.Why? because its reality and reality burns your brown @ss ?

No more huge riots. So much that, even a murder of a Muslim is painted as communal.
No such incidents happened in here. And I'm not on any drugs, never taken even alcohol so save it.Buddy your on drugs
You have courts declaring mosques as unimportant to muslims
Beef ban was there before and it was implemented even before BJP ever existed.Beef being banned for non hindus who have no qualms about eating beef
Eating beef. Yes, it has been an issue, then again the violence related to it is on the decline. Now it's few incidents in remote areas. The violence is not new, but media is not getting more spicy communal violences like before and now resort to local issues and project it to paint the picture on entire India.People being lynched on suspicion of eating meat or beef
We attempted to revive major parts of our history and give equal importance to all. Not just recent history, but the ancient ones too. Have you tried to do that?You have an attempt to erase muslim history by trying to change place names tp hindutva ones
The hindutva genie is well and truley out of the bottle
