VHP seeks law against illegal conversions

NEW DELHI: Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) on Wednesday called for a stringent nationwide law to curb illegal religious conversions, alleging that such activities pose a threat to national security.

VHP joint general secretary Surendra Jain expressed concern over what he described as "continuous reports" of conversion-related activities, including allegations linked to corporate workplaces. Referring to an alleged case in Nashik involving Tata Consultancy Services, Jain claimed the incident had exposed a wider pattern that required urgent attention.




The VHP also commended a group of police personnel who, it said, helped uncover the alleged Nashik case, claiming their intervention prevented more youths from being affected. Jain linked the issue to what he termed a broader, organised network extending beyond specific institutions. It argued that states which have enacted stricter anti-conversion laws have seen better control over such incidents.
