Christian nuns and priests targeted on false charges

It is really sad and hurting to see right-wing Hindu groups targeting our Christian priests and nuns. Christians are peace loving and we don't promote violence but in the name of conversion, these groups are targeting our religious people who are serving the people. Keeping  silent doesn't mean that you can take the law in your hands. False cases are registered by passing anti-conversion bill. Our Christian churches are burned, priests are beaten in daylight, nuns who are helping the poor and needy people are raped and insulted in public,where we have recently seen that two nuns were harassed for conversion and human trafficking where the false cases are registered and women are insulted. Even the Muslims are harassed in India and they cannot even eat the food of their choice or do their business as the harassment continues all the time.  In a democratic country everyone has a right and freedom to practice their own faith. We have Hindu friends and neighbours in Goa where we take part in each other's religious festivals. Let us live in peace in India as India is our homeland too like yours.
