Hindu vigilante groups disrupted Christmas mass in parts of India, including in Modi’s core territory ahead of local elections in the coming months, according to the media reports. They accused the MoC of leading religious conversion programmes under the guise of charity by offering poor Hindus and tribal communities money, free education, and shelter.
