Taking serious exception to the State government’s decision to repeal the controversial anti-conversion law passed by the previous BJP government, BJP national general secretary C.T. Ravi has appealed to religious heads to convene a Maha Panchayat to protect the Hindu religion.
Speaking to presspersons in Chikkamagaluru on Friday, Mr. Ravi said that the religious heads and leaders of various communities had to take the decision to bring back Hindus who had converted to other religions. “It has become inevitable to bring them back to Hinduism by using all means, including Sama (conciliation), Dana (offering gifts), Bheda (divide) and Danda (arms),“ he said.
He said the law was passed to stop forced religious conversions. However, if it were repealed, it would be difficult to stop religious conversions through attempts like Love Jihad. He also wanted to know the Congress party’s opinion on the forced conversions.
