Need to check religious conversions in India: BJP

Bhopal, November 01: BJP has advocated for amendment of the constitution to check large scale religious conversions allegedly being carried out by foreign forces through inducements.

“There is a need to check large scale religious conversion being carried out in the country through inducements by incorporating the provision of embracing any faith before a competent authority…there is a need for a law which would give freedom to people to choose their religion,” BJP president Rajnath Singh said yesterday.

The country is facing lot of threats from within and outside and foreign forces are indulged in large scale religious conversion in the country with an aim to finish India’s strength of embracing all faiths of the world, he said while addressing the ‘Amrit Mahotsav’ of senior BJP leader Kailash Narayan Sarang here.
