In Madhya Pradesh district of Satna State Police has booked Bishop Mathew Vaniakizhakkel under anti-conversion law,for forcefully converting people to Christianity.
Converting tribal and backward people to Christian faith is main activity of Christian missions especially in third world.And the way,which most missions follow in converting people is not convincing them spiritually but to lure them with money or other amenities and in most of the time trickery and all sorts of physical threat,compulsion or political pressure.
The organisations working in these social classes always alleges Christians of using fraudulent means for religious conversions and always urged various governments to enact anti-conversion laws to stop religious conversions under duress and due to fraudulent means.Various has already passed such type of laws in their respective state assemblies,but this is the first case in which one high profile Church office bearer has been booked under this law.
All social groups and organisations working for preservation of indigenous faith of tribal groups has wholeheartedly welcomed the Police action against Catholic Bishop.
