PESHAWAR: Busy preparing for the colourful religious festival of Holi on Wednesday, the Hindu community from across the NWFP alleged the Hindus seeking Indian citizenship in Amritsar had a “personal agenda” as there was no threat to their lives and families in Pakistan.

“Around 400 Hindu families living in Peshawar are celebrating Holi today and there is no restriction or threat to our youth, men, women and elders. We have never been approached by any Hindu family with complaint of threats to their lives or families,” Ram Lal, president of the Balmik Samaj Sabha (BSS) and provincial general secretary of the Scheduled Castes Federation (SCF), told The News.
