Christians become minority as number of Muslims, Hindus rise in England: report 

England no longer majority-Christian country for the 1st time, reveals latest census report 

Christians become minority as number of Muslims, Hindus rise in England: report 

While those identifying as Muslim or Hindu have registered a small rise.&nbsp;

The number of people living in England and Wales identifying as Christian has fallen below half the population for the first time, while those identifying as Muslim or Hindu have registered a small rise, according to the latest census figures released on Tuesday.
The Office for National Statistics (ONS) released its analysis of the 2021 census data to show that just over 46 per cent said they were Christian, down from 59.3 per cent in the last census conducted in 2011.
Those identifying as having &ldquo;no religion&rdquo; was the second most common response to the census survey, increasing to 37.2 per cent from 25.2 per cent in 2011, while those identifying as Muslim or Hindu registered an increase.
&ldquo;For the first time in a census of England and Wales, less than half of the population (46.2 per cent, 27.5 million people) described themselves as &lsquo;Christian&rsquo;, a 13.1 percentage point decrease from 59.3 per cent (33.3 million) in 2011; despite this decrease, &lsquo;Christian&rsquo; remained the most common response to the religion question,&rdquo; the Office for National Statistics release said.
&ldquo;There were increases in the number of people who described themselves as &lsquo;Muslim&rsquo; (3.9 million, 6.5 per cent in 2021, up from 2.7 million, 4.9 per cent in 2011) and &lsquo;Hindu&rsquo; (1.0 million, 1.7 per cent in 2021, up from 818,000, 1.5 per cent in 2011),&rdquo; the ONS said.
Those identifying as Sikh also registered a small increase, up from 0.8 per cent (423,000) in 2011 to 0.9 per cent (524,000) in 2021, and Buddhists a similar hike from 0.4 per cent (249,000) to 0.5 per cent (273,000).
People identifying as Jewish remained about the same at 0.5 per cent of the population.

The religion question in the census is voluntary, which the ONS said was answered by 94 per cent of residents, an increase from 92.9 per cent in 2011.
The data also shows that London remains the most religiously diverse region of England, with Harrow in the north of the UK capital with the highest percentage of the Hindu population at 25.8 per cent, up from 25.3 per cent in 2011.
The city of Leicester, known for its grand Diwali celebrations, was next with a greater increase of practicing Hindus at 2.7 percentage points &ndash; 17.9 per cent up from 15.2 per cent in 2011.
The city has also become one of the first cities in the country where people identifying as white are no longer the majority &ndash; with 41 per cent in 2021 compared to 51 per cent in 2011.
The areas with both the highest percentage overall and the largest percentage increase of people describing their religion as Sikh remained Wolverhampton and Sandwell in the West Midlands region of England.
As in 2011, the area with the highest percentage of the Muslim population was in Tower Hamlets and Newham areas of east London, followed by the borough Blackburn with Darwen in north-west England.
In its analysis of national identity, Indians remain the third most common non-UK identity among residents in England and Wales after Polish and Romanian.
The trend is reflected among the top foreign languages spoken in the country after English, with Polish holding the top spot followed by Romanian.

UN: India shreds Pakistan over persecution of minorities

Calling Pakistan "epicentre of terrorism", India on Tuesday said no one deserves unsolicited lecture on human rights from Islamabad

Calling Pakistan "epicentre of terrorism", India on Tuesday said no one deserves unsolicited lecture on human rights from Islamabad. India said that Pakistan has consistently persecuted its ethnic and religious minorities including Hindus, Sikhs and Christians. Exercising the Right of Reply to the statements made by Pakistan at the 45th session of Human Rights Council, the Indian representative said that it has become habitual for Pakistan to malign India with false and fabricated narratives for its self-serving malicious purposes.

Geneva, PTI: India on Tuesday described Pakistan as an "epicenter of terrorism" and said no one deserves unsolicited lecture on human rights from Islamabad that has consistently persecuted its ethnic and religious minorities including Hindus, Sikhs and Christians.
Exercising the Right of Reply to the statements made by Pakistan at the 45th session of Human Rights Council (HRC) here, the Indian representative said that it has become habitual for Pakistan to malign India with false and fabricated narratives for its self-serving malicious purposes.
"Neither India nor others deserve this unsolicited lecture on human rights from a country that has consistently persecuted its ethnic and religious minorities, is an epicenter of terrorism, has the distinction of providing pensions to individuals on UN Sanctions list and has a Prime Minister who proudly admits training tens of thousands of terrorists to fight in Jammu and Kashmir,&rdquo; the Indian diplomat said.
The diplomat said that it was not surprising that other relevant multilateral institutions have been raising serious concerns on Pakistan&rsquo;s failure to stop terror financing and lack of effective actions against all terror entities in Pakistan.
Highlighting the nefarious designs of Pakistan in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, the diplomat said, "the mass influx of outsiders has whittled down the number of Kashmiris to an insignificant number in Pakistan occupied parts of Indian Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Laddakh.&rdquo; "In its zeal to reassert its theocratic ideology, it has ensured that ethnic and religious minorities have no future through systematic persecution, blasphemy laws, forced conversions, targeted killings, sectarian violence and faith-based discrimination," the diplomat said.
"Thousands of Sikh, Hindus and Christian minority women and girls have been subjected to abductions, forced marriages and conversions in Pakistan." On the plight of people in Balochistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Sindh, the Indian diplomat said, "Not a single day has gone by when a family in Balochistan doesn&rsquo;t find its members picked up or kidnapped by the security forces of Pakistan.&rdquo; "Pakistan does well when it comes to intimidation and attacks against journalists, human rights defenders and political dissidents in particular by its state machinery. It is not without a reason that Pakistan has been highlighted by international organizations as a country where journalists are slain and their killers go scot free,&rdquo; the diplomat said.
India also slammed Pakistan for &ldquo;abusing various HRC mechanisms and platforms for raising issues, which are extraneous to the mandate of the HRC and which relate to internal affairs of India, with a view to distract the attention of the international community from serious human rights violations committed by it against its own people, including in Indian territories occupied by it.&rdquo; India also rejected the reference made by the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) to Jammu and Kashmir, which is an integral part of India.
