The Voice of the Martyrs has reclassified India as a "restricted nation" in its 2024 Global Prayer Guide, citing the escalating radical Hindu extremism and the persecution of Christians under the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party government.
The Voice of the Martyrs is helping displaced Christians hit by mob violence last month in Jaranwala, Pakistan, where 25 churches and at least 80 homes in the minority community were destroyed.
