D. 23
Correct Answer: C. 22

Article 22 of the Constitution of Pakistan provides safeguards as to educational institutions in respect of religion. Specifically, it states that no person attending any educational institution shall be required to receive religious instruction, or take part in any religious ceremony, or attend religious worship, if such instruction, ceremony or worship relates to a religion other than his own. This protects minorities from being compelled to study or participate in religious practices not aligned with their faith.
