Cornerstone Ministry Comments on Indian Christians

UCAN Report:  IA9732.0969       Issued on: April 3, 1998

We came across the following on the website :

http://www.enter.net/~cornerstone/IND.HTML

Followers of news on our web pages will notice that in the Caribbean and South America the Holy Spirit has been doing a marvelous thing, pulling more Hindus to faith in Christ than ever before. In fact, He has been doing this throughout the world. But the enemy is active too. We know a pandit in Venezuela who actively tries to keep young converts from fellowship with other Christians and who openly attacks the church.

The article then goes on to make the claim that :

In Orissa, which is about 95% Hindu and 2% Christian, authorities are cracking down on Hindus who become Christians. The government has directed revenue inspectors to visit homes, and if the inspectors see a cross, Bible or Christian art, they are to immediately cancel basic citizenship privileges for those who live there, according to India Intercessors newsletter. Some Christians have already been notified that they have lost their basic rights because they have converted from Hinduism.

[end of excepts]

Comment : There is no provision in the Indian constitution that permits Government to withdraw basic citizenship rights of anyone.  The website making above claim offers no evidence for the accusation either.
