Supreme Court added that it will not only affect the Union of India but also affect security of the nation.
Supreme Court today said that forced religious conversion is a “very serious” issue. The apex court added that it will not only affect the Union of India but also affect security of the nation and freedom of religion and conscience.
A Bench of Justices MR Shah and Hima Kohli asked the Union of India to make its stand clear by filing a counter affidavit in the matter within November 22.
“The issue with respect to alleged conversion of religion, if it is found to be correct and true, is a very serious issue which may ultimately affect the security of the nation as well as the freedom of religion and conscience of the citizens. Therefore, it is better that Union government may make their stand clear and file counter on what further steps can be taken by Union and/or others to curb such forced conversion maybe by force, allurement or fraudulent means,” the Supreme Court said.
The matter will be next heard on November 28.
