Pakistan has banned the celebration of Hindu festival of Holi across educational institutes in the country. Pakistan's Higher Education Commission issued a notice saying the decision was taken to prevent 'erosion of the Islamic identity'. The diktat came after a purported video from Islamabad's Quaid-I-Azam university, where hundreds of students were celebrating Holi and dancing, went viral on social media. The order has reignited the debate regarding discrimination against minorities in Pakistan.
