New Delhi: Police in Indore have arrested the parents of a woman and seven other people under the state’s new anti-conversion law for allegedly forcing her to embrace Christianity.
According to news agency PTI, before the arrest of the accused, people affiliated to the Bajrang Dal had created a “ruckus” at Christian centre in Indore on Tuesday, alleging that many persons were being “forced” to convert.
Earlier this month, the state government promulgated the Freedom of Religion Ordinance 2020, which provides for 10 years in jail in some cases if the accused is found guilty of conversion through fraudulent means.
