The Christian Community in the district of Kanker in the central Indian state of Chhattisgarh has planned to organize a public rally in protest of the ongoing discrimination against Christians in the area. The public protest named “Nagarik Astha Adhikar Rally,” or the “Civil Rights Rally” in short, is being organized by the Rashtriya Christian Morcha, a nation-wide civil rights advocacy group, in association with the Christian community in Kanker. No date has been set. Numerous villages in the Kanker district previously erected billboards banning the entry of pastors and “converted Christians,” creating fear among members of the Christian minority.
