In this ground report from Chhattisgarh’s Kanker district, India Today highlights the escalating tensions over religious conversions. A converted family in a remote village alleges they were attacked on December 24 by a mob of nearly 30 men who pressured them to return to their former faith. The family, who converted decades ago, claims they lived peacefully until the recent surge in controversies. The incident has triggered widespread unrest, with Sarva Samaj organizations calling for a state-wide bandh to protest against alleged forced conversions and cultural erosion. The report also features an account from a pastor who returned to his former religion, as interviewed by reporter Gaurav Shivastav. With the administration verifying facts and ensuring security, the report questions whether freedom of faith can be exercised without fear in the tribal heartland. Reported by Sumi Keval Patel.
