‘Conversion charges false’

MANGALORE: Patron of Karnataka Missions Network H.T. Sangliana said on Monday that allegations of Christians having been involved in conversions at two recent incidents reported in the undivided Dakshina Kannada district were not true.

Addressing presspersons here he said that the two inmates of a hostel at Udyavara had complained to the police that the warden of a hostel was attempting at converting some inmates into Christianity. In another incident at Attavara in Mangalore, activists of an organisation tried to storm an apartment complex alleging that its inmates were indulging in conversion. There was no substance in the allegations made with regard to the two incidents, he said. Mr. Sangliana alleged that unnecessary charges were being levelled against Christians that they were indulging in religious conversion.
