RSS against forceful religious conversion: Joshi

Rashtriya Dharma Prasar Pramukh of the Rashtriya Sawaym Sevak Sangh (RSS) Mohan Joshi on Sunday said his organisation was dead against forceful religious conversion by any community.

Citing the recently held missionaries' annual meeting of Emmanuel Missionary International (EMI), he alleged to reporters that the Christian missionaries offered all sorts of inducement to poor people to get converted to Christianity.

The government should curb it with strong hand, he demanded.

Meanwhile, the state intelligence agencies are probing reports about the presence of foreigners who attended the five-day EMI function, the official sources said.
