Between rice-bags and conscience: On freedom of religion and the right to be allured

<br/><br/> The recent arrest of two Catholic nuns on charges of attempting forced religious conversion necessitates that the limits of the constitutionally guaranteed right to propagate religion and the opposition to Christian missionary activities are examined. The criminalisation of allurement in anti-conversion legislations needs to be problematised, given the co-implication of spiritual and material interests, which makes it difficult to maintain the binaries underlying the juridical understanding of voluntariness.- Reproduced <br/><br/>https://www.epw.in/journal/2025/49/alternative-standpoint/between-rice-bags-and-conscience.html<br/>
