Nuns Forced Off Train Over Conversion Suspicion In UP

Two nuns and their two novices were heckled and forced to get off a train in Uttar Pradesh's Jhansi by members of the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad, who suspected them of conducting religious conversion. They were allowed to proceed only after an inquiry at the railway station established there was no conversion involved. The ABVP is the student's wing of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, the ideological mentor of the BJP. Union minister Amit Shah has promised action in the matter.
