Conversion Laws

The constitutional right to freedom of religion, which is also said to include the right to convert, has been taken up time and again by the Indian courts. The problem, however, arises when a person is forced or lured to convert to another religion  

Gujarat has become the latest state to propose a law to prevent “love jihad”. It follows UP, Uttarakhand, MP and HP which have stringent laws to criminalise religious conversion by marriage.

Religion is a belief system that integrates culture, teachings, practices, personal experiences, and artistic expressions which relate people to what they perceive to be transcendent. Religion has two facets which divides the world on the one hand and unites the globe in it’s own ways on the other.
