Party hopes ‘love jihad’, Sabarimala will gain traction among Christian, Hindu voters
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Wednesday raised the spectre of ‘love jihad’ to woo Christian voters ahead of the Assembly polls on April 6. BJP State president K. Surendran said “deceptive conversion to Islam” using inter-faith love marriage as a cover was a matter of grave concern to Christians. Kerala Congress (M) leader Jose K. Mani had given voice to the community’s worry. However, Mr. Mani had backtracked from the candid observation under pressure from the Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI(M)].More Related News
