Saga of Pakistani Hindu family, father and 2 daughters saved by Nikhil Chandwani
Nikhil Chandwani, a renowned social activist, entrepreneur, and influencer, in an absolute greatest act of humanitarianism and bravery, has recently spearheaded a mission to rescue Hansraj, a Pakistani Hindu, and his family from a harrowing situation.
In September, a Maulvi (Islamic cleric) visited Hansraj, a resident of Sindh, Pakistan, and expressed intentions to forcibly convert his 14-year-old daughter to Islam and marry her.
Fearing for his family’s safety, Hansraj fled his home with his two daughters, seeking refuge in a remote location. To protect his daughters, he was forced to hide them in a 3-foot deep pit, covered with a cage, every night.
Nikhil Chandwani’s intervention
Hansraj reached out to Nikhil Chandwani, narrating his distressing tale of religious persecution. Upon learning about Hansraj’s plight, Chandwani took immediate action. Nikhil has a team of Hindus in Pakistan’s Sindh who coordinate rescues with him. Nikhil, along with his team first provided financial support to Hansraj and then orchestrated a major rescue operation.
Nikhil Chandwani’s on-ground team in Sindh safely relocated Hansraj and his daughters to a Hindu-majority town, providing them with accommodation and the funds to apply for an Indian visa. In anticipation of their arrival in India, Chandwani is also arranging the construction of a small hut with essential amenities for the family. Nikhil Chandwani has assisted in the rescues of 40+ Hindu, Sikh, and Christian girls in Sindh, Pakistan with the use of social media pressure, his own funds, and an on-ground team.
Expanding the mission
The successful rescue of Hansraj’s family inspired Nikhil Chandwani to extend his support to more Hindu families facing similar threats. He has allocated funds to assist 10 additional families, helping them escape persecution and seek refuge in India. The leader of a refugee camp, touched by these efforts, shared a heartfelt video that showcases the impact of this initiative.
Community and global response
The response from the community and global observers have been overwhelmingly positive. Chandwani’s selfless actions have not only provided immediate relief to these families but have also highlighted the broader issue of religious persecution in certain regions. His work serves as a beacon of hope and a call to action for other humanitarian organizations and governments worldwide.
Future plans and call to action
Nikhil Chandwani’s mission is far from over. The plan is to continue raising awareness and funds to support more Hindu families in need. Everything he does is self funded. No NGO, no donation, absolutely no donation ever! The goal is not just to provide temporary relief but to offer a pathway to a safer and more stable life. Chandwani calls upon individuals, organizations, and governments to join in these efforts, contributing in any way possible to make a significant difference in the lives of those affected by religious persecution.
