Leaders of both ruling and opposition fronts, along with a prominent Catholic body on Saturday welcomed the news of the two nuns getting bail.

- AM Abdussalam

They were arrested in Chhattisgarh over allegations of human trafficking and forced religious conversion

Minister for General Education V Sivankutty described the development as “heartening,” but said that the political agenda behind the nuns’ arrest was very clear.

In a Facebook post, he also claimed that the incident highlighted the double standards of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), as it was turning a blind eye to the atrocities against and persecution of minority communities in states ruled by the saffron party, while acting as their protectors in Kerala for political gains.
