Hindutva leader from Assam, Satya Ranjan Borah, warned against the activities of the Christian Missionary-run educational institutions in the state. He alleged that Missionary-run educational institutions are acting as religious institutions and trying to convert people.
On the 5th of March, in a press conference in Guwahati, Borah alleged that missionary-run educational institutes are using soft processes to convert. While most of the students of those schools are from the Hindu community, there is no traditional ‘Namghar’ but a church in every institution.
“They(Christian Missionaries) are not converting people directly. They are using soft-target-based schemes, be it seeing Jesus Christ in the morning till the end of the day. What will be running inside the head of the student? In Christianity, anyone can be a ‘father’, but not in our Bharatiya or Assamese culture,” he said.
He further clarified, “We are not against Christianity but against the soft-target schemes of the Christian Missionaries.”
Then he warned, “There will be no Christianity in Assam. There will be movement on the streets.”
Notably, Satya Ranjan Borah is the president of the Assam-based Hindutva organisation Kutumba Surakshya Parishad’. Earlier, he alleged that Christian Missionary-run educational institutions are acting as religious institutions. He also protested against the torture of a student of a missionary school in the Shonitpur district.
