Hindu Yuva Vahini (HYV) members forcibly stopped an interfaith couple who had turned up to register their marriage at the Moradabad district court on Monday.

Four Muslim men arrested in connection with the first case filed in Gujarat under the draconian anti-conversion law were granted bail on Wednesday.

Church leaders find themselves rapidly losing allies, even as they make new enemies, and widen the many internal fractures of dogma, doctrine, racialism, and caste.

The so-called ‘love jihad’ is clearly a bogey! The Bishop needs to wake to the Gospel of Jesus; and together with the CM of Gujarat (where the issue is sub-judice) and their ilk, should realise that we have a Constitution which is sacred and meant to guarantee and protect the rights of all citizens!

It would be naïve to view the Sulli Deals or similar objectification of the “Other” women merely from a gender lens. A historical analysis that puts into perspective the sexualisation of racism will help us to interconnect multiple different incidents like claims of love jihad, population jihad, hyper-masculine jingoism, metaphorising of women as the nation, sexualisation of both Muslim women and men that currently seem to be distinct and unrelated.
