More than 100 priests, brothers and nuns who practice law have resolved to reach out to those affected by anti-conversion laws and anti-minority atrocities. The National Lawyers Forum of Religious and Priests (NLFRP) that held its Dece-mber 6-8 convention at Eluru in Andhra Pradesh has also formed three high-power committees to deal with such cases. The convention at Eluru’s St. Joseph’s Dental College addressed the theme, “Changing the Landscape – The Context and the Call.” The convention began with a Mass led by Bishop Jaya Rao Polimeru of Eluru, who has a background in criminal law. “I am pleased to note there is a good amount of awakening within the Church. There are so many of you–religious priests who are also law-yers,” Bp Polimeru said welcoming the participants from 16 Indian states.
