Pakistan observes 'Int'l Day to Combat Islamophobia'
Pakistan has emerged as one of the leading actors in the Muslim world to raise its voices against Islamophobia.
Islamabad: The Muslim world is observing International Day to Combat Islamophobia on Tuesday (today), to denounce rise in intolerance and discrimination against Muslims and other minorities in the West, India and other parts of the world.
Pakistan has emerged as one of the leading actors in the Muslim world to raise its voices against Islamophobia.
The credit for introducing the anti-Islamophobia Day also goes to Pakistan’s leadership, as the country presented a resolution at the 47th session of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Council of Foreign Ministers in Niamey, Niger in November 2020 in this regard.
Since then, the 57-member OIC has been working with the international community to commemorate this Day at the global level.
Pakistan reaffirmed its support to continue to lead international efforts for building bridges between cultures and civilizations.
