Message From Minister for Minorities
With the minorities Affairs Division in the second year of its having been set
up as a separate Ministry, I can say this with great pleasure that the step of the
Government to establish a full-fledged organization especially for Minorities
has been a very significant administrative decision. With the focus solely on
the welfare and protection of the Minorities, in order to deal with issues
relating to them, the Ministry has been able to generate good will and
substantive results both in terms of practical measures taken and positive
image of Pakistan for the foreign observation during official visits to Pakistan
and vice-versa.
Our commitment to the mission statement of Minorities Affairs Division is re-
affirmed with the launching of the second Year Book for the year 2005-2006.
We have made a few additions in this year book to include wider scope of
activities as has been taken during the year in order to substantiate our goals
and also to give our reader new dimensions of actions in keeping with our
objectives.
We continue our efforts to ameliorate and improve conditions for minorities
living in Pakistan and together we look forward to a better tomorrow for all of
us, Inshallah.

Message from Minister of State for Minorities Affairs
It is my pleasure and honour to have the opportunity to convey my feelings
being a representative of Pakistani Minorities, through this yearbook.
The step of setting up of a separate ministry for minorities was a reflection
upon government’s determination and dedication towards addressing the
multifarious problems being faced by the minority communities of Pakistan.
Appointment of a Minister of State from minority communities in addition to
the Federal Minister is another step towards achieving that goal.
A brief overview of the policies made and practical measures taken during the
year 2005-2006 is presented in this yearbook, which reflects upon the
performance of the Ministry. There may have been a number of shortcomings,
keeping in view the fact that the Ministry is still in its infancy. But we are
optimistic that with our continuous endeavors and feed back from readers we
will work together towards creating an environment of harmony and peace for
all the citizens of Pakistan.

FOREWORD
It has been two years since Minorities Affairs Division has been working as
an independent Ministry. Last year, we presented the first yearbook of the
Ministry i.e. for the year 2004-2005 where we made an effort to help the
readers gain an insight into the vision, objectives, working and achievements
of this Ministry. We are proud to present the second yearbook for the year
2005-2006 after the completion of another successful year.
The Ministry is still in the process of evolution. Through this yearbook, we
have made an effort to bring to light the progress we have made during the
past year, keeping in view the main objective, i.e., the welfare and uplift of the
Minorities.
Any feedback for bringing improvement/change is most welcome.

INTRODUCTION
To protect the rights of minorities as envisaged under the Constitution of
Pakistan, the Ministry of Minorities was established in September 2004. Since

below: -
“Promotion of welfare of minorities,
safeguarding their rights, protection against
discrimination, upkeep of their religious places/
properties and expeditious socio-economic
uplift of all minorities without any
discrimination”.
FUNCTIONS

the Ministry has been entrusted with the following functions:-
a. Safeguarding the rights of minorities;
b. Promotion of welfare of minorities;
c. Protection of minorities against discrimination;

bodies and conferences relating to minorities,
including U.N. Sub-Commission on Prevention

SOCIO-ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
The Articles – 20, 21, 25, 26, 27, 28, and 36 of the Constitution of Islamic
Republic of Pakistan provide full protection to all citizens of Pakistan without
any discrimination of colour, creed, cult, language or gender. Other than
Muslims all religious groups in Pakistan who represent 3.72% of the total
population are enjoying equal rights under the aegis of constitution of the
country.
To uphold constitutional commitment Government of Pakistan has allocated a
special fund for the minorities. This fund ensures that the minorities do not
feel left out and are assisted throughout the year by the Government in
concrete schemes, which could not be reflected in PSDP. Two parts of the
fund operative in this Ministry are: -
(i) Special Fund for Uplift of Minorities (Development Schemes);
(ii) Special Fund for Welfare of Minorities (Scholarship).
i) SPECIAL FUND FOR THE WELFARE AND UPLIFT
OF MINORITIES.
A non-lapsable ‘Special Fund for the uplift of minorities’ is operative
in this Ministry since 1985. The Federal Government provided an
allocation of Rs.70 million to this fund in its annual budget 2005-2006.
This fund was utilized for the following purposes: -
a) Small development schemes for minorities. 70%
b) Financial assistance to needy individuals (minorities) 30%
4
Those funds were utilized through the active participation of elders of
the minorities and on the recommendations of parliamentarians.
Small Development Schemes
A detailed Accounting Procedure authorizes a development
committee to approve the schemes received from the provincial
governments/community leaders, minorities members of
parliament etc. The development committee comprising the
following:-
1 Minister for Minorities Chairman
2 Secretary, Ministry of Minorities Member
3 Joint Secretary (Minorities) Member
4 Financial Advisor to the M/o
Minorities
Member
5 Representative of Pak. PWD Member
6 Chief / Deputy Chief, Planning &
Development
Member
7Deputy Secretary (A/M),
M/o Minorities Secretary
Prior to the induction of the present elected regime, funds were
being spent on recommendations of the provincial
governments. However, as a result of introduction of joint
electorate system in the general election held in October 2002,
the minorities have the right to vote in electing MNAs on
general seats. Consequently the MNAs have to respond to the
expectations and aspirations of minorities, as they are an
integral part of the constituency. Hence development schemes
out of the Special Fund for the welfare and uplift of minorities
also required consultation with all concerned MNAs.
Therefore, funds are now being utilized through the active
5
participation of elders of the minorities, on the
recommendations of parliamentarian.
Provincial allocations out of the development fund are made on
the basis of the minority population (according to latest census)
of four provinces and are beside those implemented under
other public sector development programme.
During the financial year 2005-2006, the development
committee met once. A special focus was to prioritize those
schemes that aimed at “greatest good to the greatest number”
Detail is at Appendix-I.

Scope of Development Schemes for F.Y 2005-06
The development committee schemes for the financial year 2005-06
primarily are focused in the following areas: -
i. Repair / maintenance / renovation / protection of holy /
worship places of minorities;
ii. Support to NGOs working for the Welfare of
Minorities; and
iii. Basic amenities, Sui Gas, Electricity, Soling / drains
and Roads.
Repair/maintenance/renovation/protection of holy/worship places
Twenty-one development schemes were approved in the minority
populated area i.e. Lahore, Gujranwala, Sheikhupura, Kasur,
Rawalpindi, Pattoki, Bahawalnagar, Sanghar Mirpurkhas, Larkana and
Mansehra. These schemes were necessary for improving ambiance of
7
worshiping places for the minorities in the country. There is a dire
need of preservation and maintenance of worship places and protection
from illegal encroachment.
The completion of these schemes would ensure not only facilitation for
religious ceremonies, maintenance of religious places that are in a
dilapidated state either due to neglect or poverty of the concerned
community, but would also earn good will and brotherhood that will
emanate as a result of these schemes.
Support to NGOs working for the Welfare of Minorities
The development committee for supply of sewing machines approved
01 development scheme to minority NGOs, in the minority populated
area of Districts, Gujranwala.
Basic amenities, Sui Gas, Electricity, Soling/drains and Roads
Various far-flung areas such as villages in Swat, Tirah, Gujranwala
have basic amenities, such as paved streets, soling/drainage some of
the densely populated area of Karachi & Islamabad also do not provide
basic necessities to the minorities areas. The measures taken under
various 09 small schemes during the current year could provide
immediate relief to the target areas.
Financial Assistance
In continuation of the policy and main objective of this Ministry i.e
welfare of minorities, Financial Assistance was granted to a number of
deserving minority individuals this year as well. Moreover, in order to
help poor minority individuals celebrate their religious festivals,
8
financial help was granted on occasion like Christmas, Easter Holi and
Bisakhi, etc.
The category wise break up of financial assistance disbursed during
the financial year 2005-2006 is given below: -
Year No of persons Amount in Rupees

Total 6693 19,400,452
SPECIAL FUND FOR THE WELFARE OF
MINORITIES (SCHOLARSHIPS)
Special Fund for the welfare of minorities (Scholarships) is operating
in the Ministry since 1985. The fund is meant for the uplift and
advancement of educational status of the minority communities. The
spirit behind the scholarship scheme is optimal usage of talent in
educational institutions so that the students belonging to minority
communities could prove themselves as asset for the country. The
amount spent on grant of scholarships during the financial year 2005-
2006 is given below.
No. of Students Amount
7,565 10,794,800
As per procedure, applications for scholarships are invited through
press each year. These applications after thorough scrutiny are
processed and scholarships are awarded to eligible students.
The following rates of scholarships to various categories of students
are under consideration in Finance Division as the Ministry of
Minorities has suggested significant increase in these rates:-

National Cultural Award for Minorities
The Government of Pakistan introduced “National Cultural Award Scheme”
for promotion and preservation of culture of minorities since 1976. Under this
scheme, a certificate and cash prize of Rs. 50,000/- are granted in the fields of
literature, education, medicine, engineering, performing arts, folk arts,
computer sciences and sports. On the recommendation of National
Commission of Minorities an additional award in the area of “ Interfaith
Harmony” has been introduced. So far 92 persons have been granted National
Cultural Award for Minorities (Appendix-II)
10
National Commission for Minorities
In compliance with Cabinet’s decision of 1993, a high-powered National
Commission for Minorities under chairmanship of Minister for Minorities was
established to protect and safeguard religious, social and cultural rights of the
minorities in Pakistan. The latest commission was re-constituted / notified on
26-06-2004. The commission consists of thirteen members including official
& non-official members, with tenure of three years.
Last meeting of the Commission was held on 30-05-2006 in which the
members discussed steps to be taken for protection of Minorities, requests for
issuance of NOC for sale/purchase/transfer of communal property, re-
examination of the scholarship scheme and National Cultural Awards Scheme.
National Cultural Awards Scheme has since been revised and changes have
been incorporated as advised by the Commission while changes in the
scholarship scheme are under process.
11
Constitution of Interfaith Harmony Committees at District Level
Government is extremely sensitive for protection of minority communities in
Pakistan and has taken special steps in this regard. During the period of this
report, Interfaith Harmony Committees have been constituted at district level
throughout the country to create better understanding between the minority
communities and the Muslims.
On the directions of Federal Government, the districts have devised their
contingency plans to protect lives and properties of minorities in case of any
untoward situation in their districts. Although sporadic events of terrorism
against minorities occurred, but it is very encouraging to note that such events
were largely condemned by Muslims and other religious communities of the
country.
12
International Liaison
Since the Ministry is responsible for representation of Pakistan in
International bodies and conferences relating to minorities and activities to
prevent discrimination to minorities, the Ministry did its best to create a soft
image of Pakistan through its liaison with international actors. In September,
2005 the following delegation of Christian Solidarity Worldwide visited
13
Pakistan and met President, Prime Minister, Minister for Minorities and other
dignitaries of the country: -
1) Mr. David Drew, Member, British Parliament (Labour)
2) Mr. Jhon Bercow, Member, British Parliament (Conservative)
3) Rt. Reverend John Perry, Former Anglican Bishop of
Chelmsford
4) Mr. Stuart Windsor, National Director of Christian Solidarity
Worldwide.
5) Mr. Ben Rogers, Advocacy Officer, South Asia, Christian
Solidarity Worldwide.
The basic purpose of the visit was to interact with Minority groups in Pakistan
and to see their overall human rights situation. The delegation appreciated
Government’s courageous stand on terrorism/extremism and the efforts of the
Government of Pakistan to protect and promote the minorities.
14
Similarly in November 2005, Archbishop of Canterbury visited Pakistan to
attend the Episcopal Silver Jubilee of Dr. John Malik, Bishop of Lahore and
Moderator Church of Pakistan. Most Reverent & Rt. Honorable Dr. Rowan
Williams the Archbishop of Canterbury inter-alia his meeting with the
President, Prime Minister and other dignitaries attended a dinner hosted by the
Minister for Minorities. He emphasized on peaceful co-existence and
interfaith dialogue. He appreciated Government’s commitment to fight against
curse of bigotry and extremisms through dissemination of vision of
enlightened moderation. The Ministry successfully conveyed positive message
of our tolerant policies to our brethren from other communities in the global
village.
