Rajasthan Anti-Conversion Bill needs amendments to make it effective and stringent, says VHP prez Alok
The Statesman Bhubaneswar
|July 15, 2025
The Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) has held that the Anti-Conversion Bill introduced in the Rajasthan assembly in February during the budget session earlier this year, is not effective enough, and suggested some amendments in the bill.
Talking to mediapersons here on Monday, VHP President Alok Kumar said: "I have been here for past five days and during the sojourn here, I met five prominent saints with whom talks revolved on issues like forced conversions, 'Ghar Vapasi', cow protection and family values. Sants were worried about attempts made for conversions."
The VHP chief stressed upon passage of a stringent anti-Conversion law in Rajasthan, saying: "I met state Chief Minister on the first day of current visit and conveyed to him our demand of a stringent and effective law."
