Persecution spreading at a ‘rapid rate’ across India


(Worthy News) – Persecution in India is at its highest level in 70 years, a new report has warned.

The report, by US-based charity Persecution Relief, said that persecution was spreading at a ‘rapid rate’ across the majority-Hindu country, with 477 incidents of violence recorded in 2018, up 37 from the previous year.

Instances of persecution included disruptions to worship services, vandalism, churches being closed off by the authorities, churches and Bibles being set on fire, congregations being evicted by landlords following pressure from hardliners, access to churches being blocked, and local authorities refusing to grant permission for new church construction.
