Thoroughly escapes me why there are any Hindus still living in Pakistan. I thought all of them had enough brains to move east when they partitioned in 1947.

You guys need to quit thinking out of your ivory towers. My parents came over to India as refugees from Pakistan. They lived through that horror. This is Pakistan not the US. You can just get up one day and hire movers, get uhaul, pack everything and move. Most people we are talking about here are farmers and their ancestral land and property is all that the have. Moving to India is not simply a couple hours drive but and arduous journey over the desert and fraught with dangers. Pakistani border guards will treat you as spies or traitors. And Indian border guards don't like people crossing into their side from Pakistan.
