Despite having a majority-Muslim population, Pakistan also has a number of minorities. Several religious identities participated in the political struggle for Pakistan's foundation prior to 1947 for the realization of fundamental human rights alongside the nation's majorityMuslim population. Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, Pakistan's founding father, repeatedly underlined that minorities will have the same rights as other Pakistani citizens, including total religious freedom to profess and practice their beliefs in the newly established state. This objective mightnot be successfully accomplished in later years or through various tactics. The exclusion of religious minorities from citizenship and education is a serious issue. Education is the means by which a country progresses. Every person has the fundamental right to an education, regardless of any differences. The marginalized communities in Pakistan are not given equal opportunities to attend school. The social and educational systems in Pakistan are inherently unequal. Sadly, the educational system is rife with this inequality. The study aims at analyzing literature on educational exclusionand citizenship to offer strategies for reducing social division and eliminating discrimination against religious minorities by encouraging respect for all cultures through an egalitarian system of education. This study's objective isto evaluate potential changesto educational policy that might promote an inclusive mindset. Methodology for data collection includes study of themes relevant to religious minorities like educational exclusion and citizenship. Literature is reviewedfrom 2016 till 2022 by the researchers. Thematic review of previous literature from various authentic sources i.e., research gate, sage publications, Taylor and Francis, Google scholar and fifteen research studies have been studied. Two themes educational exclusion and citizenship have been thematically reviewed through literature selected for research and main findings corresponding with themes are presented in tabular form. Data is analyzed through thematic analysis method. It is concluded that Pakistan's educational system has to be reorganized to employ an inclusive strategy. The educational system in Pakistan is insufficiently supportive of religious pluralism and harmony. This type of exclusion causes the society to grow increasingly divided. It is essential to include minority groups in the social development of the nation, especially in the educational curriculum so that development can take place through education. The inclusion of religious minorities in the realm of development is imperative. An educated minority is a tremendous asset for the country. Education is supposed to promote peace, progress, tolerance, and respect for differences.
