1974 Anti-Ahmadiyya riots: what Wikipedia removed
The 1974 Anti-Ahmadiyya riots targeted Pakistan’s Ahmadi minority. Through 2020 the opening said Islamist parties and some mainstream parties sided together to persecution of Ahmadis, naming Islamist parties as a driver of the violence. Today the opening describes only governmental actions against the community, with Islamist surviving once in the body. A reader today learns the government acted against Ahmadis, not that Islamist political parties joined in their persecution.
The word “islamist” appeared 1 times in this article’s opening at its peak, in 2015. Today the opening carries none; the body carries 1. Checked against the full current article on 2026-08-01.
