Pakistan government has decided to rebuild 400 temples in Pakistan and will hand it over to the Hindu community-based in Pakistan. The temples were intruded and converted into madrasas, school or toy store.

The 1000-year-old Shivalaya Tej Singh temple is set to be restored whereas Sialkot already has a functioning Jagannath temple. Shivalaya Tej Singh temple was functional till 1992 but after the Babri Masjid demolition, it was attacked by a mob and left abandoned.
Pakistan court has also declared the Goraknath temple in Peshawar as a heritage site. As per the survey of Pakistan Government 2019, 11 temples are functional in Sindh, 4 in Punjab, 3 in Balochistan and 2 in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
