Pakistan Confines Sikh Leaders Like China's Uyghur Policy

Some people in Pakistan are saying that the government is quietly keeping Sikh leaders like Gopal Singh Chawla under house arrest for almost three years.

They are not officially arrested, but they are not allowed to move freely, earn money, or see their families much.

This is similar to how China treats the Uyghur people.

The government says they are doing this to protect the Sikh leaders from threats, but some think it is really to control them without causing a big public problem.

Gopal used to be friends with some powerful people, but now he is having a hard time.

The government is also reportedly doing this to other Sikh leaders to make them less visible and to send a message to the Sikh community.
