The Maharashtra government has established a seven-member panel to investigate the legal framework for a possible law targeting forced religious conversions and incidents of “love jihad”.

The panel, led by the state Director General of Police (DGP) Sanjay Verma, comprises senior officials from important departments, including women and child welfare, minority affairs, law and judiciary, social justice, special assistance, and home.

A Government Resolution (GR) released late Friday states that the committee will recommend actions to address issues concerning forced conversions and “love jihad.” It will additionally examine current laws in various states and suggest legal measures.

The topic of love jihad, instances of Muslim men deceiving Hindu women to convert them, has been brought up by the BJP-led government in Maharashtra after the Shraddha Walkar incident. Walkar, a 27-year-old female from Maharashtra, was reportedly killed, and her remains were dismembered by her live-in boyfriend Aaftab Poonawala in 2022.

The opposition has criticized the government’s choice to establish the committee, with NCP (Sharad Pawar) leader Supriya Sule stating that “marriage or love is a matter of personal choice.”

Condemning the BJP, Samajwadi Party MLA Abu Azmi stated that the government was primarily concentrated on targeting Muslims and promoting communalism. “They support freedom for live-in relationships, yet they oppose interfaith marriages or conversions if someone over 18 wishes to pursue them.” “Azmi stated that love jihad does not exist.”

Congress leader Husain Dalwai claimed that forced conversions do not occur and that “love jihad” is a fabrication. “Democracy permits individuals to adhere to any faith.” Our nation is secular, yet certain individuals aim to undermine the foundation of our culture. Allow them to demonstrate how many instances of love jihad they have truly encountered. “The Congress leader stated, ‘These individuals aim to introduce Hitler’s culture into our nation.'”

Supporting the government’s action, BJP MLA Mangal Lodha stressed that “love jihad” incidents were rising throughout the nation.

POWER CORRIDORS

Former Vice President Venkaiah Naidu commended Power Corridors as a commendable news magazine, affirming that it not only upholds Media Dharma but also fulfills its societal obligations. Power Corridors, as its name implies, delves into realpolitik—examining the essence of influential circles, unraveling the intricacies of political maneuvers, and exploring the pulse of the state’s affairs. However, it transcends mere power dynamics, encompassing a broader spectrum of issues beyond the confines of Delhi’s elite circles.

For PC, which is published by the Interactive Forum on Indian Economy, not only highlights the issues of the day but also throws up what ought to be the subjects that the country should be debating about. It reports about the plans, strategies, and agendas of politicians and others; it also sets the agenda for the nation.
