Tim Uppal was the first non-Pakistan politician to visit the victims of the Taliban in Pakistan earlier this week. Tim Uppal was in Pakistan for 2 days to visit the camps where the internally displaced people are living. He visited camps in Mardan, Swabi, and Gurdwara Panja Sahib in Hasan Abdal. Tim Uppal said "The government of Pakistan has rightfully taken military action against the Taliban who had been harassing and persecuting religious minorities such as Sikhs, Christians, and Hindus. Canadians are very concerned for these people who have been forced out of their homes. It was important for me to get a first hand look at their living conditions. The international community will need to support Pakistan in this effort against the Taliban by helping the millions of internally displaced people"

"We are left with nothing here , we don't even have tents at the temples the minorities are staying at" said Haresh Chopra, Pakistani MP of SWAT region on the refugees taking refuge in various religious temples in Hassan Abdal and Peshawar.Haresh Chopra is the only Sikh MP in the region of SWAT, where the fighting amongst the Taliban and Pakistan military has intensified.
