In Fatehpur, Uttar Pradesh, a pastor, his son, and another individual were arrested following allegations of luring poor Hindus to convert to Christianity through inducements like money, jobs, and free education. The arrests followed a protest by Bajrang Dal activists outside the India Presbyterian Church. An FIR was registered based on a complaint alleging that objectionable remarks were made against Hindu deities and attendees were pressured to convert. Police have denied claims of assault on the accused and are searching for other absconding individuals.
