Strict Anti-Conversion Laws Mandatory


While releasing the list of more than 400+ incidents of love jihad, the senior leaders of VHP and Bajrang Dal are demanding strong judiciary provisions to prevent such practices.


In Hadiya's case of Kerala, how terrorist organizations like PFI make eminent lawyers stand on the side of Jihadis by paying fees of crores of rupees. For this, they get a vast amount of money from abroad.


The churches of Kerala and Karnataka describe 10,000 Christian girls as victims of love jihad, while 2000 girls have gone missing in Hyderabad, about which the High Court is seeking an explanation from the state government.


Peace-loving states like Himachal and Ladakh are also moving towards anger after being troubled by love jihad. In Kerala, the Church has also alleged that their girls are being trapped and sent to Syria and Afghanistan. Even Kerala High Court in 2010 had described love jihad as the most gruesome form of religious conversion.


According to Dr. Surendra Jain the terrorist nexus of illegal conversion and love jihad and its international nature, cannot be stopped from enacting laws only in some states. As a nationwide resolution is necessary, which will be expressed only through a strong national law. Its worst form has come to the fore in the recent Shraddha murder case.


Under such situation role of social organizations is also very important in mitigating this mentality. Sar Tan Se Juda Gang is active nowadays. Against which the helpline numbers issued by Bajrang Dal received more than 13000 calls.


Out of these, 6285 were only for information, about 5605 were resolved and 9783 calls were meant to join Bajrang Dal.
