Alleging religious conversion, a mob of right-wing groups and members of Hindu organisations tried to push their way inside a church in Haryana’s Rohtak on Thursday, 9 December, but were eventually stopped by the police.
This comes amid increasing attacks on the Christian community, as right-wing Hindu groups continue to allege religious conversion taking place.
While no complaint had been filed regarding conversion, Captain Manoj Kumar, the Deputy Commissioner of Rohtak said, “We received a complaint that something like this might be happening”, news agency ANI reported.
Meanwhile, the Associate Pastor of the Church informed that the police visited them last evening, notifying them about a possible demonstration.
The Associate Pastor was quoted as saying, “People come here out of devotion, just like any other place of worship… We never forced anyone to come here.”
