Harbingers of Change
J.Salik has always raised voice for observance of human rights
and safeguarding security of minorities all over the world. He
supported all movements around the globe for freedom and justice
through his innovative struggle. People of Pakistan and
countless persons abroad are aware of his selfless and sincere
struggle spread over quarter of a century.
He has been five times elected member of parliament and county
councils to represent the minorities. He was a federal minister
for population welfare. He was nominated for Nobel Peace Prize
on behalf of Islamic Republic of Pakistan despite being
Christian.
The episodes of September 11, 2001 and the subsequent American
aftermath shattered the life-long dreams of J.Salik in respect
of world peace based on justice and equity for all sections of
the society.
In November 2001 J.Salik voluntarily confined himself in a steel
cage to demonstrate his
helplessness vis a vis safeguarding the security of the
oppressed. The cage was mounted on a truck named as Peace Drive
of Pakistan to enable J.Salik to be mobile and widely spread his
message of peace and amity. After completing seven months and
twelve days in cage he succumbed to unanimous request of Muslim
clerics of Pakistan to end his confinement.
Now J.Salik proposes to convene a world conference of
representatives of minorities all over to devise mechanics for
their uplift and ensuring peace.
