Anju from India receives ‘land among other gifts for embracing Islam’.
Anju, an Indian woman who made headlines both at home and abroad after traveling to Upper Dir and marrying a Pakistani man, has gotten a plot of land and other presents as a show of appreciation for accepting Islam, according to the Hindustan Times.
Mohsin Khan Abbasi, the chief executive officer of a real estate company situated in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, gave Anju the presents, which included Rs50,000 and 10 marla homeland after she converted to Islam.
In a surprising turn of events, the 35-year-old Indian divorcee came to Pakistan legally on a valid visa and married Nasrullah, her 29-year-old Facebook acquaintance, after choosing Islam as her new religion.

“Anju has come here from India and converted to Islam. So these gifts are to welcome her, to congratulate her as we are immensely happy. This is just a small attempt to appreciate her,” he said.
“Secondly, when someone moves to a new place, the main problem is housing. Since we have a project running, we thought it better to accommodate them [Anju and Nasrullah] here,” Abbasi said.
He claimed that was all to reassure Anju that she would have no problems after converting to Islam.
On July 22, a mother of two from Kailor in India’s Uttar Pradesh entered the Wagah border on a one-month visa from Pakistan.
However, as a foreigner, she will need to apply to the Home Ministry if she wishes to prolong her stay.
