Alcohol should be as easily available as Pepsi or Coke: Sindh MPA

Society Pakistan & World Affairs

KARACHI: Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) MPA Saleem Khursheed Khokhar has suggested that alcohol should be as easily available as Pepsi or Coke, in order to stop reinforcing that it is only for minority faith members to consume.
Khokhar, who is also the chairman of the Standing Committee on Minority Affairs, brought up the idea as the Excise and Taxation Minister Mukesh Chawla was answering questions in the Sindh Assembly on Wednesday.
While another MPA, Anwar Khan Mahar, had clarified that alcohol was not allowed in minority faiths either, the minster told the assembly that according to the 1979 Act regarding the sale of alcohol, only non-Muslims were allowed to sell or consume alcohol.
Khokhar’s point was that reinforcing that non-Muslims drink alcohol created further divisions and it should just be made open for all.

Amazing stuff. Gen. Zia forced this law, along with other stuff to show his Holiness and to justify hanging a tunn leader.

But the govt that followed, never consulted minorities to revise the law. Pakistan is everyone's. If booz is not allowed in Hinduism, for instance, the Hindu community must be consulted to get their opinion on this law. If they like to be excluded from the 'non-Muslim' term used in the law, then it must be ammended. It must say that other than Muslims and Hindus in Pakistan, consuming and selling alchohol is permissible for other minorities, such as Christians, Parsi etc etc.

Re: Alcohol should be as easily available as Pepsi or Coke: Sindh MPA

You may be right... But Khokhars are also present in Balochistan... So may they are from those casts who migrated in Sindh & Punjab during 16th Century at the time of Mir Chakar Khan Rind due to tussle between Rind and Lashari tribes.
