Activities of Pentecostal churches a problem in India: WikiLeaks

A Congress leader had told the US embassy.

 

New Delhi:  A new revelation by the WikiLeaks has stated that Congress president Sonia Gandhi wanted a ban on pro-Hindu Bajrang Dal but was denied, saying that religious activities of Pentecostal churches are also a problem.

WikiLeaks said that Congress leader KV Thomas told US embassy that Sonia Gandhi wants to ban Bajrang Dal but former national security advisor M K Narayanan opposed it.

Thomas also refused to blame BJP Government in Karnataka for the recent violence in Karnataka.

“Forced” conversions and distribution of inflammatory literature by the new Pentecostal churches in India has harmed the Christian community’s previously harmonious relations with the Hindu majority,” Thomas said.
