‘1K converted Sikhs reverted'
Lucknow: The All India Sikh Punjabi Welfare Council (AISPWC) announced on Tuesday that it will launch a state-wide campaign to combat religious conversion of Sikhs in Uttar Pradesh.
Speaking at the UP Press Club, AISPWC national president Harpal Singh Jaggi said around 1,000 people had been reverted to Sikhism out of approximately 3,000 who had converted to Christianity in Pilibhit district. "We will organise public meetings, awareness drives, campaigns and dialogue programmes across the state to prevent such conversions," said Jaggi.
President LGPC Devendra Singh Bagga, another council member, expressed concern that such "unconstitutional activities" were disturbing communal harmony and peace in the region. TNN
