ISLAMABAD: Federal Minister for Interior Rehman Malik on Thursday said that Hindu families migration is a conspiracy against Pakistan.

Rehman Malik said that minorities could not leave the country without the permission of the Interior Ministry. The Hindu families migrating from Jacobabad to India was halted due to the process required for leaving the country, he stated.

Replying to a question he said that the Indian High Commission should justify his reasons for issuing 250 visas in this regard.

The interior minister said that the government would probe into the matter and after satisfaction, the families would be allowed to go to India.
