  2. Hatred against Ahmadis should stop in Pakistan. Government should provide total security and protection to Ahmadis who are peaceful citizens of that country. Pakistan has already won the bad-name of being the breeding place for all sorts of terrorism and a country which violates basic human rights of it's fellow citizens in the name of blasphemy law. All secular forces of Pakistan must join hands together in containing Mullaiyaat and fanaticism.
