Shameful act and every Indian will condemn it.Where are all the sanghis? Will they condemn this? They jump around like monkeys when something happens in another country but remain silent about things happening in their country.

Fact of the matter is, minorities are oppressed far worse in India than any other country in Asia. Whole of Asia.

In Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, political and communal tensions have escalated due to confrontations in churches just before Christmas, following right-wing groups' allegations of forced religious conversions. Incidents involved visually impaired students at a church, where confrontations occurred, leading to police intervention.
Jabalpur: A series of confrontations inside churches in Madhya Pradesh has triggered political and communal tensions just days before Christmas, after right-wing groups carried out back-to-back raids alleging forced religious conversions. The incidents, reported from Jabalpur over the past two days, led to violence, police intervention and multiple detentions, with sharply contrasting claims from those involved.
Jabalpur Church Clash Over Alleged Conversion of Visually Impaired Students
The first flashpoint unfolded on Monday at a church located behind Hawabagh Women’s College in Jabalpur, where members of several right-wing organisations entered the premises, alleging that visually impaired students were being coerced into religious conversion.
The group was accompanied by Anju Bhargava, a BJP district vice-president. What began as allegations soon escalated into a heated confrontation inside the church, scenes of which were captured on mobile phones and widely circulated on social media.
BJP vice district president in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh harassed and beat a blind woman from the Christian community after falsely accusing her of converting a small child, while the police stood there without taking any action.In BJP ruled states, Christians are under constant attack, yet in Kerala the BJP is shamelessly trying to seek votes from the Christian community.Shameless hypocrites!
Police Rule Out Forced Conversion, Students Sent Back Safely
According to the police, the gathering involved visually impaired students who had been invited for a meal and prayers as part of Christmas-related charitable outreach by members of the Christian community.
Officials said the students had been brought from a government-run hostel for lunch and prayers and denied any attempt at forced religious conversion.
“At this stage, there is no evidence of forced conversion. Statements of the students are being recorded,” a senior police officer said, adding that the children were safely sent back after the disturbance.
Right-Wing Groups Question Programme, File Complaint
Despite the police clarification, right-wing organisations lodged a complaint, questioning how students from a government hostel were taken to a religious site without prior information to authorities. They also alleged that prayers conducted were exclusively Christian in nature and claimed that non-vegetarian food was served at the venue.
BJP Leader Defends Her Actions
Speaking to The Indian Express, Bhargava defended her presence at the church, saying she had gone there after receiving information from local activists that visually impaired women were being “held against their will” in a dilapidated structure near the church.
She claimed that some visually impaired women told her they wanted to leave and alleged irregularities in how the programme was organised. Bhargava also said she herself was assaulted during the confrontation but chose not to file a complaint “because the woman involved was blind”.
Second Incident: Prayer Service Turns Violent in Madhotal
This was the second such incident in Jabalpur within a week. On Sunday morning, a prayer service at a church in Madhotal descended into chaos after members of a right-wing organisation entered the premises, leading to violence and multiple detentions.
The confrontation took place around 11 am at a church near Shiv Shakti Nagar, where a prayer meeting was underway. What began as questioning about the size and composition of the congregation quickly escalated, with chairs reportedly thrown and slogans shouted inside the place of worship.
Members of the Hindu Seva Parishad claimed they approached the church after receiving information about an unusually large gathering that included people from outside districts, and said they were probing possible conversion activities.
Worshippers Allege Forced Entry, Assaults
Worshippers present at the service narrated a starkly different version of events. They alleged that 15 to 20 young men forcibly entered the church during prayers, chanting “Jai Shri Ram” and creating panic among the congregation.
“Worship of the Lord happens in the church, not conversion. For years, people have been coming here of their own will and praying,” said Jitendra Barman, who was present during the incident.
“Today, when the prayer meeting was going on, young men barged in shouting. They assaulted women and children,” he alleged.
Police said several youths were detained for creating a disturbance at the Madhotal church and that investigators are now piecing together the sequence of events based on statements from both sides and available evidence.

Indian state passes hate crime law church leaders hope will better protect to Christians, minorities
India s Karnataka state has approved a new law aimed at curbing hate speech and hate crimes, a move welcomed by church leaders and human rights advocates who say it offers stronger protection for
India's Karnataka state has approved a new law aimed at curbing hate speech and hate crimes, a move welcomed by church leaders and human rights advocates who say it offers stronger protection for religious minorities, including Christians.
The Karnataka Hate Speech and Hate Crime (Prevention) Bill, 2025, was passed by the state assembly on Dec. 18 under the Congress Party-led government. The legislation was adopted despite opposition from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which argued that the law could be used to suppress political criticism.
The bill seeks to limit the spread of speech and actions that promote hostility, discrimination or violence on grounds such as religion, caste or gender. It introduces criminal penalties for offenders and includes measures to provide compensation for victims.
Under the new law, individuals convicted of promoting hate speech may face prison sentences of up to seven years and financial penalties. Repeat offenders could receive longer jail terms and higher fines.
The legislation also grants authorities the power to direct social media platforms and websites to remove or block content considered likely to provoke hatred or lead to violence.
Religious leaders have broadly welcomed the development, describing it as an important step at a time when minorities increasingly face hostility. Christian representatives in the state said the law could help reduce inflammatory rhetoric that fuels social tensions and harassment of vulnerable communities.
At the same time, some observers cautioned that the law must be implemented carefully to ensure it is not misused against legitimate criticism or peaceful opposition.
Rights advocates noted that hate speech in India has become more frequent in recent years, particularly during election campaigns, and has often been followed by incidents of violence. They said the new legislation strengthens existing legal safeguards and could serve as a deterrent against extremist rhetoric.
The bill has now been sent to the state governor for formal approval, after which it will come into force.
Advocacy groups say the effectiveness of the law will depend on consistent and fair enforcement, but they believe it offers a meaningful tool to promote social harmony and protect the rights and dignity of minority communities.

How were the Nazis defeated? They were not defeated with roses and hugs. They were defeated with benevolent force.
Similar strategy is needed to defeat/correct India's radicalized population.

Some practices in the army pre date independence, courts don't poke their noses in those things, like regiment names like maratha light infantry or jat regiment etc look like having casteist or regional colours but are not interfered with, you need to read the constitutional assembly debates when it was decided to subsume the British Indian army into in dian army with existing names and practices

No Rest, Even in Death: Christians in India and the growing targeted violence in Chhattisgarh
On December 15, 2025, seven days ago, in Kanker district, Chhattisgarh, a province in the central part of India, the father of Rajman Salam, an elected sarpanch (village headman), was buried according to Christian rites on the family’s farmland. This is the traditional way of conducting burials in the area. Barely had the burial taken place, soon thereafter, a large mob allegedly incited villagers with a claim that under the PESA Act, they had a right to exhume the body. The mob asserted the land belonged to a local deity, and that a Christian burial was impermissible at the spot!
This is a macabre repeat of three years ago. In November 2022, in the same region, an elderly Christian woman, Chaitibai, in Krutola village, Chhattisgarh, was denied burial space by village authorities, forcing her son to use family land.[1]The family had initially been denied access to the village cemetery and was directed to bury the deceased on their own land. Subsequently, villagers and local political leaders attempted to exhume the body using a tractor, but the police prevented this attempt. The following day, however, the police themselves exhumed the body and reburied it in the Christian graveyard in Anantgarh pursuant to the orders of the District Collector.

A press release of the United Christian Forum has expressed alarm at the ongoing situation in Chhattisgarh. All these cases follow a documented pattern of violence and hostility against Tribal Christians.
Cases in Chhattisgarh, Odisha[3], and Jharkhand reveal coordinated intimidation. Burials are becoming contentious and politically charged. Grieving families are forced to face violent mobs, forced exhumations and forced conversions of faith.
The United Christian Forum recorded 23 burial-related incidents (19 in Chhattisgarh, 2 in Jharkhand, and one each in Odisha and West Bengal) in 2025, whereas 2024 saw around 40 such cases (30 in Chhattisgarh, 6 in Jharkhand, and others in Bihar and Karnataka).One recent report also describes Christians being denied burial rights on ancestral land and a climate of fear among pastors and converts.[4]
Most affected villages do not have designated Christian burial grounds, and historically shared communal graveyards have increasingly been treated as Hindu-only spaces. Families attempting to bury their dead within the village face opposition, even where they have buried relatives for generations. Where Christian only graveyards exist, they are often located far from tribal settlements.
Additionally, families frequently lack access to a mortuary, transport, or time to undertake legal procedures while a body is decomposing at home. This Practical hardship often prevents immediate complaint-making, which in turn allows authorities to record “no dispute”.
Among the recent Cases:
The UCF also states that “there have also been numerous instances of Ghar Wapsi and violence.[7]The media has, over the years, documented Hindu nationalist groups in Bastar, Chhattisgarh, pressuring Adivasi Christians to “reconvert,” including a filmed ceremony led by a local BJP leader. One recent report also describes a climate of fear among pastors and converts.[8]”
- In January 2025, villagers obstructed the burial of Ramesh Baghel, a Scheduled Caste Christian. With no relief from the High Court, his son approached the Supreme Court but was forced to bury him outside the village.[5]
- In November 2025, villagers in Jewartala of Balod district in Chhattisgarh refused to allow the burial of Raman Sahu, a Christian convert, claiming that only “traditional” village rites were permissible. Just weeks earlier in Koderkurse, Kanker district, Chhattisgarh, another Christian man’s body was turned away from multiple villages for three days, with police unable to secure a burial site.[6]
On November 2, 13-year-old Sunita from Brehebeda in Narayanpur district, Chhattisgarh died of typhoid; when her body returned home, villagers blocked a Christian burial and insisted on traditional Adivasi rites. Her brother Manupotai said the family was told a burial on village land would be allowed only if they abandoned Christianity. Sunita was ultimately buried that evening far from Brehebeda, at a burial ground near the Narayanpur district centre, roughly 10 km away. [10]
- In Nabarangpur district, a mob blocked the burial of 20-year-old Saravan Gond after his family refused to abandon Christianity. Even in the presence of officials, agitators declared Christians had “no right” to burial in the village, assaulted female relatives, and later forced the family to exhume the body themselves. After the burial site was vandalised, the family fled for safety. Saravan’s remains have since disappeared, and despite a formal complaint on 28 April 2025, the police have taken no action.[9]
Similarly in Odisha, independent fact-finding teams recorded at least 10 cases of burial denial between 2022 and 2025 across Nabarangpur, Balasore and Gajapati, along with associated exhumations,[11]forced reconversions and assaults.[12]Fact-finding team also reported access to community land for Christians. [13]
Other recent Cases:
Hate Speech: Exclusion of Tribal Christians from Constitutional Protections
- In Nabrangpur, Odisha, India, after a person named Keshav Santa died on 2 March 2025, villagers blocked his burial solely because his son is a Christian. Even burial on the family’s own land was denied unless they reconverted to Hinduism. The police and the local Revenue Officer arrived but took no action. Keshav’s son was ultimately forced to announce he was leaving Christianity before burial was permitted on 9 March. In the weeks that followed, the family was subjected to punitive water and electricity cuts and sustained harassment by villagers. Instead of protecting them, local authorities then issued a “breach of peace” notice against the Christian family itself, effectively charging the grieving victims while ignoring those who threatened and coerced them.[14]
- In October 2024, in Menjar village, Nabarangpur district, Odisha, India, the family of 27-year-old Dalit Christian Madhu Harijan was prevented by non-Christian villagers from burying him in the common graveyard. Villagers demanded that his body first be “converted to Hinduism”, and a mob reportedly conducted a shuddhiritual over the corpse. When the family and the local Christian priest approached authorities, the Umerkote tehsildar suggested burial in a distant Christian-majority village instead. After a two-day stand-off during which the body began to decompose, the family, under pressure, agreed to the Hindu villagers’ conditions.[15]
Calls to delist Christian tribals from the Scheduled Tribe status are creating fear and division in states like Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand, Odisha and Rajasthan. Organisations such as the Janjati Suraksha Manch (JSM) have held large rallies urging that tribal communities who adopt Christianity or Islam be stripped of Scheduled Tribe protections, framing conversion as abandonment of “tribal identity.” [16]
These campaigns insist that conversion leads to the “loss of tribal identity,” even though tribal status in the Constitution is not tied to religion. Field reports show that these campaigns have contributed to unprecedented violence, excommunication, and coercion. On the other hand, no similar objection is raised when tribals adopt Hindu practices, exposing the selective and discriminatory nature of the movement.
Many Adivasi Christians fear that being pushed to use these Christian-only burial sites will later be used to challenge their Scheduled Tribe identity and demand their “delisting,”.
UCF: Larger Context of Violence against Christians in India
Finally, the organisation states that “this extreme violence and hostility at the time of bereavement in the family is a reminder that all is not well in the country. No family should be met with intimidation, assault, or threats in their time of grief because of their faith. The recent incidents, where Christian families have been blocked from burying their loved ones, forced to bury outside their villages, or even compelled to exhume bodies under pressure, show how grief and vulnerability can be weaponised.”
- Between 2014 and 2024, incidents of violence against Christians rose from 139 to 834, reflecting an alarming increase of more than 500% over a single decade. The total number of documented incidents across this 12-year period reached 4,959 cases, affecting Christian individuals, families, and institutions nationwide.
- There are over 700 incidents in 2025 (Jan-November) affecting families, churches, schools, hospitals, and service organisations. Vulnerable communities impacted: Dalit Christians, women, and tribal Christians.
- And just two states, Uttar Pradesh and Chhattisgarh, account for 48% of all violence.
- Only 45 FIRs or criminal complaints were registered against members of the mob, despite nearly 580 incidents being recorded in 2025, resulting in 93% of incidents going unpunished due to administrative inaction and victims’ fear of retaliation.
- 230 FIRs were filed against Christians, out of which 155 were under the Anti–conversion laws, and 800+ people went behind bars.
- The two states with the highest number of wrongful arrests of Christians under anti-conversion laws are Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. In Uttar Pradesh alone, since the law came into effect in 2020 and up to October 2025, more than 350 FIRs have been registered, resulting in the arrest of over 1,000 individuals.
The government’s first obligation is to protect life, liberty, and dignity, especially when a family is most vulnerable. If police and local authorities cannot ensure a lawful, peaceful burial and instead allow mobs to dictate who may grieve and how. The State, by failing to protect communities, is enabling impunity.
The UCF has called on the governments of Chhattisgarh and Odisha to:
- Implement a time-bound compensation and rehabilitation plan for displaced Tribal Christians, including land restitution, rebuilding of homes, and livelihood support.
- Direct the State Director General of Police to initiate departmental action against police personnel who fail to prevent or respond to violence against religious minorities.
- Direct every Gram Panchayat and urban local body to identify, notify, and maintain a “common graveyard” area that is religion-neutral and accessible to all residents, including converts and minority communities. The allotment should be backed by written land demarcation, public signage, and entry in local land records, with a clear protocol that no burial may be obstructed by private actors or mobs.
- Designate a nodal officer at the district level to ensure immediate police protection during funerals where tensions are anticipated, and any attempt to block a lawful burial or exhume remains should trigger prompt criminal action and disciplinary proceedings for official inaction.
