Islamabad, June 26: Fed up with repeatedly being called Hindu and cow worshiper, an MP in Pakistan gave a befitting reply in Pakistan parliament, media reported.

"Patriotism to one's nation is not dictated by religion. A Hindu in Pakistani, is still a Pakistani, and a loyal and patriotic one at that," Pakistani lawmaker Lal Malhi made this comment during an ongoing session a few days back.

Malhi is a Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf's member of the national assembly (MNA) on a minority seat.

Malhi was addressed as 'cow-worshiper' by a number of parliamentarians a few days prior to the session.

On the comment he said that it is his right to be a 'cow-worshiper' and no one is supposed to question that.
He was constantly taunted for being a Hindu. He stated that he was a Pakistani at the end of the day and that is what should matter.
