A recent academic analysis posits that Christians in Pakistan endure a modern form of "neo-dhimmitude," characterized by systemic socioeconomic subordination, targeted blasphemy laws, and ideological framing as Western proxies. This condition betrays the nation's founding pluralist vision. The report details incidents of forced conversion offers, such as a 2017 case condemned by Lahore's Father Inayat Bernard, and highlights the structural inequalities and caste-based marginalization that confine many Christians to menial sanitation work.

The Pakistan Catholic Bishops’ Conference strongly denounced inflammatory anti-church remarks made by Jamiat Ulema Islam's Muhammad Owais Aziz. The cleric, protesting a mosque demolition, alleged many churches were built on encroached property, calling them "heaps of filth." Church leaders, including Father Inayat Bernard, refuted the claims, emphasizing the Church's lawful service to the nation. This incident underscores growing religious intolerance in Pakistan, where numerous churches were attacked in 2023.

A disturbing incident was reported where Pastor Rizwan's church and Christian colony were set on fire in Faisalabad. The attack was based on false charges of blasphemy, a recurring trigger for violence against religious minorities in Pakistan. This event highlights the extreme vulnerability of Christian communities to mob violence and the misuse of blasphemy laws.

In July 2025, a deeply disturbing incident of child molestation occurred in Shah Inayat Colony on Khara Road in Qasur, Punjab. A little girl was assaulted by a man while playing outside her home. The incident, which was filmed and circulated online, provoked widespread public and social media outrage. Local authorities responded with swift action, arresting the suspect within three days after an exchange of fire. The case reignited public discourse on child safety and the need for stronger protective laws in Pakistan.
