Conversion and Love Jihad – uttamhindu.com

forced conversion A youth has committed suicide in Meerut regarding. It is worth noting that in the Supreme Court of the country, recently, on a petition demanding strict steps to be taken by the Central and State Governments to stop forced conversions, Attorney General R. Venkataramani had sought judicial help, and also said that this is a serious issue. Don’t give it a political colour. Senior advocate P Wilson, appearing for the Tamil Nadu government, termed the petition by advocate Ashwini Upadhyay as “politically motivated”. Upadhyay had claimed in the petition that forced conversion was a big problem and it should be resolved immediately. There is not a single district where forced conversion is not done. The petition sought strict measures to stop religious conversions through hawala and other means of funding. Simultaneously, a direction was also sought to direct the Law Commission of India to examine illegal fraudulent conversions, provide suggestions to the Deputy Commissioner legislation and guidelines. The Supreme Court had on September 23 last year sought response from the Center and others on this petition. The Supreme Court on December 5 termed forced conversions as a threat to national security, saying it could encroach on the religious freedom of citizens. The purpose of any charity should not be religious conversion. Forced conversion is a serious issue which is against the spirit of the Constitution. Center should make serious efforts to deal with it. The court had warned… If the conversion through deception, allurement and intimidation is not stopped then a very difficult situation will arise. The Gujarat government had told the Supreme Court in an earlier hearing… Freedom of religion does not include the right to convert others.

About 8 lakh people convert every year in the country. Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh and Vishwa Hindu Parishad have taken out a fury march in Mumbai against Love Jihad. I am keeping some examples in front of you regarding Love Jihad. In 2012, Oommen Chandy, the then Chief Minister of Kerala, told the assembly that 2,687 non-Muslim women (2,195 Hindus and 492 Christians) converted to Islam between 2009-12, with marriage being the main reason. It is clear that in such cases, instead of love, the religious feeling of expansion of Islam is more. Perhaps this is the reason why a term like ‘Love-Jihad’ was born. In this, to get religious ‘Sawab’, that ‘Takaiya’ is followed, in which deceit is justified. That’s why in all the cases of ‘love-jihad’ in India, most of the Muslims use tilak on their forehead, kalava in their hand and Hindu names etc. to hide their Islamic identity without any sense of ‘kufr’. In Lucknow, Chand Mohammad married a Hindu girl with a fake identity of Sushil Maurya and then tortured her in various ways, including feeding her beef. In Prayagraj itself, Mohd Alam, posing as Anuj Pratap Singh alias Sonu, not only had a relationship with a 21-year-old nursing student, but also forced his brothers to do the same. A Hindu girl in Bihar’s Valmiki Nagar alleged that Zakir disguised herself as a lover and sexually assaulted her. According to a media report, last year more than 150 cases of love jihad came in the country. In 99 of these, Muslim youths by hiding their religious identity trapped most of the Hindu girls in their love trap. Six of them even hid the information of their marriage. In 43 cases, there were allegations ranging from breaking the idols of Hindu gods and goddesses to feeding them beef and getting their friends or relatives to rape or threatening to make pornographic videos public.

It is clear from the above facts that forced conversion and love jihad are serious issues before the country, Hindu society should oppose them at the social level by becoming aware, while the central and state governments should take strict steps and laws to stop conversion and love jihad. need to be made.
