Give equal voting rights to Ahmadi Muslims in Pakistan
Give equal voting rights to Ahmadi Muslims in Pakistan
Why this petition matters
The Ahmadi Muslim sect in Pakistan is denied the right to vote in any of the elections that are held in the country. The right to vote is a basic right that every citizen of a country should have, but it is denied for these people simply because of their beliefs. To be allowed to vote, these people have to renounce their faith or list themselves as "non-muslim". The basic right to vote should not have to depend on one's religious affiliations and every citizen of Pakistan should have the ability to cast a ballot in all the elections. The Pakistani elections are NOT FAIR because an entire community of the population is excluded from them. THE PAKISTANI GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO ACT TO ALLOW FULL PARTICIPATION OF MEMBERS OF THE AHMADIYYA RELIGIOUS COMMUNITY IN THE GENERAL ELECTIONS. This petition is going be the first step is presenting the request to the Pakistani government to bring this issue into notice and give the voting rights to these people.
