Christian history in Pakistan

Christians make up 1.6% of Pakistan’s population, about 2.8 million people out of a total population. The majority of the Pakistani Christian communities is constituted by converts from the Hindus, Sikhs, and Muslims from Punjab region, from the British colonial era. The community is geographically spread throughout the Punjab province, whilst its presence in the rest of the provinces is mostly confined to the urban centers. There is a Roman Catholic community in Karachi which was established by Goan and Tamil migrants when Karachi’s infrastructure was being developed by the British during colonial administration between World War I and World War II. Meanwhile, there are few Protestant groups conducting missions in Pakistan.
