While the COVID-19 calls for the world to reboot itself and transform the social, business, and economic models, what remains unaddressed is the need to collectively fight the religious discrimination that exists in different societies across the world. The religious discrimination in Pakistan continues even during a pandemic situation. Witnessing such bigotry against the religious minorities during a crisis is both shocking and saddening, to say the least. A Muslim man later distributed food among the Christian community. There is a dire need to promote pluralism, and fight the in-built prejudice that has been ingrained in the masses, or else the religious discrimination will continue to plague our society.
