The 39-year-old, however, also said that the citizens of Pakistan didn't ever show any sort of discrimination against him for being a Hindu in a Muslim dominated nation.
Miandad's comments came after former Akhtar claimed on country's national television that some Pakistani cricketers refused to have food with Kaneria, who belonged to the minority Hindu community.
The spinner, who is serving a life ban for spot-fixing, has been brought into focus after former pacer Shoaib Akhtar alleged that some Pakistani players refused to even share food with him due to his faith.
Akhtar sparked a furore when he said that Kaneria was humiliated by some players because he was a Hindu, was not given due credit and some even refused to eat food with him because of his faith.
In a statement, Danish Kaneria also revealed that his life is "not in a good shape" and therefore urged Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan to get him "out of the mess".
Kaneria, only the second Hindu to play for Pakistan after his maternal uncle Anil Dalpat, took 261 wickets in 61 Tests at an average of 34.79. He also played 18 ODIs.
Recently ICC's ACU shared information about active corruptors with England and Sri Lankan cricketers, currently involved in a limited overs series.
Former leg-spinner Abdul Qadir said Kaneria's confession was a big blow to the image of Pakistan cricket.
After six years of denial, the former Pakistan cricketer confessed his involvement in the 2009 spot-fixing scandal which rocked England's County cricket.
