Religious Minorities & Pakistan

Mr. Isphanyar Bhandara, chief executive of the Murree Brewery, organised a luncheon in the honour of some of the distinguished members belonging to the minority community on December 3, 2022. Mr. Bhandara, a former member of the National Assembly and a leading philanthropist, works for promoting religious harmony in the country. Members from the Sikh, Hindu, and Christian and other religious communities attended the luncheon at Mr. Bhandara’s residence in Rawalpindi. While welcoming his guests, Mr. Bhandara highlighted the role of the religious minorities in the development of Pakistan – from the country’s defence to education and health sectors. Religious minorities also play a leading role in creating business and employment opportunities, he said, adding that they would remain committed to this role.
