Karachi: April 12, 2009. (PCP) Easter eve of 2009 in Pakistan was witnessed entirely different than previous years when Churches nor Christian colonies were bathing in electric flood lights or decorated. The midnight services of Easter in Peshawar and Nowshera were thinly attended while in Swat valley were no prayer gatherings. The Islamabad and Rawalpindi Churches were heavily guarded by police and Christian without any vehicle or available other transportation hesitated to get out of homes and preferred to stay away from worship places. The Dhok Ilahi Bux, a major residential area of Rawalpindi Christians from century was deep in dark and homes were not decorated by electric lights. The Christian colonies in Islamabad were also deserted and street were not filled like previous years. The Catholic and Church of Pakistan Cathedrals in Lahore were turned to be forts by presence of law enforcement deployment on fear of terrorists attack. Same scenes were witnessed in Multan, RahimYar Khan and Bahawalpur cities of western Punjab where Christians prayed under fear. The Karachi and Hyderabad cities of Sindh province attracted large number of gathering in Churches during midnight services of Easter but not sounded like before. The Quetta city Churches only received few dozen worshipers due to strike in Balochistan province on killing of Baloch nationalist leaders. The national newspapers published from Karachi, Hyderabad, Quetta, Lahore, Multan, Rawalpindi and Peshawar not published any message on April 12, by President of Pakistan, Prime Minister of Pakistan and Federal Minister for Minorities because such messages were not released this year. The speaker of National Assembly of Pakistan was only from VVIP to congratulate Christian on feast of Easter 2009. The Federal Minority Minister Shahbaz Bhatti who belongs to Christian community also not bothered to release any message or help for poor Christians to celebrate Easter. There were nor any processions of Christ the King during month of Lent in Pakistan which were being organized from decades. The Easter of 2009, passed by in silence and fear without family visits and dancing in streets of Christian colonies through out Pakistan.
