(PCP) Prominent Human Right Activist Mr. Johnson Joseph wrote to Pakistan Christian Post PCP, pointing out true picture of claims of government of Pakistan on 5% Quota for minorities in Pakistan. Mr. Johnson said “Here in Pakistan another injustice with minorities that Punjab Government had launched housing Scheme in Punjab . In that Scheme Punjab Government did not fixed 5 % quota for minorities” He added “Although the Federal Government had announced 5 % quota in every field of life for minorities in Pakistan . 5 % quota is the great achievement and great gift for the minorities . It is the first step of minorities finically development . I can not ignore it . In the modern world this is great injustice with minorities to not give them share in the housing scheme . Punjab is land of five Rivers . Its mean that Punjab is Multi nations Province in its nature . Here are different kinds of Faiths . In Punjab here are low income Muslim , Sikh , Hindu , Ahamidi and Christian . Punjab Government is showing negative attitude for minorities in Pakistan . Punjab Government is giving importance to Islam not to its citizens” Mr. Johnson pointed out that here is another injustice with boys and girls of minorities in Pakistan . Punjab Vocational Training Council is running Vocational Colleges in all over the Punjab. The young boys and girls can not take admission in these vocational training colleges . You can imagine that how many minorities boys and girls are deprive of vocational training yearly ? “I had talked with the Principal of main branch of Faisalabad . Mr M . Ilias replied me that these V T I are running under Bait _ul _Mall Punjab government. Therefore other people can not take admission . Punjab Government is providing free admission , free books , free uniforms . 500 Rs monthly Scholarship and 5000 Rs on the complication of training . This is another injustice with the minorities of Pakistan. Mr. Joseph demanded P V T C to give admission to Christian children in the vocational training . We not need free books free admission , free uniforms . Do not give us 500 Rs monthly Scholarship and 5000 Rs on complication of training but give us admission in vocation colleges.
