Concerns over the treatment of religious minorities in Pakistan have resurfaced following the reported case of two Hindu sisters from Sindh who allegedly pleaded to be allowed to return home after being shifted to a safe house on court orders. The sisters were reportedly abducted and subsequently converted to Islam and married to Muslim men. The case has once again drawn attention to allegations of forced conversions and marriages involving Hindu girls and women in Sindh, where the Hindu community is one of Pakistan’s largest religious minorities.
Who Are the Two Sisters?
According to reports, the sisters, identified as Sita and Rupi, belong to the Kachhi Kolhi community. They were allegedly abducted before being converted to Islam and married to Amjad Solangi and Mansoor Solangi, respectively. Details surrounding the circumstances of their alleged abduction and conversion remain the subject of legal proceedings and competing claims.
Sisters Plead: “We Want to Go Home”
A video circulating on social media purportedly shows the two sisters crying and pleading to return to their family. The footage has triggered renewed concern among activists and members of Pakistan’s Hindu community. The development came after a court in Sindh’s Tando Allahyar district ordered that the sisters be moved to a safe house.
Heartbreaking to see the girls sobbing after the court refused to send them with their parents.

Reports of More Cases in Sindh
The case comes amid broader allegations of forced conversions and marriages involving Hindu girls in Sindh. Some reports have claimed that six Hindu minor girls in the district were allegedly abducted and converted to Islam within a period of 10 days.
Why Sindh Remains Under Focus
Sindh is home to a significant Hindu population, particularly in rural areas. Rights groups and community representatives have repeatedly raised concerns over alleged forced marriages, conversions and abductions involving Hindu women and girls. The latest case has therefore renewed calls for authorities to ensure the safety of minority communities and investigate allegations of coercion while protecting the rights of those involved.
