Author: inp

RAWALPINDI: Federal Minister for Statistics, Senator Kamran Michael has said that the Christian community is playing its due role in national security and development in a befitting manner and enjoying equal rights like all other citizens in the country.

Addressing a cake cutting ceremony organized in connection with Christmas celebration held here in Rawalpindi at the residence of Christian Leader Sarfaraz Francis alias Vicky he said the government is striving to safeguard the rights for the Christian community, being enjoyed by other communities of the country. The Christians are as important for the country as others citizens, he added.

Kamran said the terrorist attack on the Church in Quetta is highly condemnable as such tyrannizing attacks cannot wobble Christians’ determination and commitment for Pakistan.
