#BIG: First Conviction in a Case of Christian Conversion under Uttar Pradesh Anti-Conversion Law

Pastor Jose Pappachan and his wife Sheeja Pappachan have been sentenced to five years of imprisonment with a fine of 25,000 INR each after being proven guilty of luring Dalits to Christianity.

They used to hold prayer meetings and offer allurements to Dalits in Ambedkar Nagar District, after which a local Hindu activist lodged a complaint. The duo was booked under the UP Anti-Conversion Law, and now they have been sentenced.

More details in my report soon, sharing copy of the order:
