A two-day Christian spiritual convention organized at a private hotel in Ratlam town in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh was disrupted by Hindu nationalist groups on May 27 over allegations of forced conversions. Members of the event’s organizing committee claimed they had notified authorities about the two-day conference beforehand. Despite the notification, the police, under pressure from protesters who arrived in large numbers to disrupt the conference, detained 15 members of the organizing committee, citing a lack of required permissions for the event. They were later released.
