On June 15, a new version of the local anti-conversion law came into force in the Indian state of Gujarat: it mainly targets “love jihad”. And just four days later, in the city of Vadovara, the police filed a complaint arresting six people, including five members of the same family.
A 24-year-old woman raised this case, which shows how divisive the issue is in the Indian states where the Hindu nationalists of the BJP rule.
