Mumbai: Hundreds march against ‘love jihad’, demand law against religious conversion

Hundreds of members of right-wing groups took out protest march in Mumbai on Sunday demanding laws against "love jihad" and religious conversions in the state. This has come a week after a similar protest was carried out in Nagpur.

The protesters under the banner of 'Hindu Jan Aakrosh Morcha', organised by Sakal Hindu Samaj, began their march from Shivaji Park in Dadar in central Mumbai and culminated at Kamgar Maidan in Parel, covering a distance of more than 4 km.

Earlier on January 22, members of Sakal Hindu Samaj staged a protest in Maharashtra's Pune against "love jihad", alleged illegal conversions, and cow slaughter.

The march titled 'Hindu Jan Aakrosh Morcha' began at Lal Mahal and culminated at the Deccan area of Pune.
