FIR against Missionaries of Charity home in Guj
December 14, 2021

An FIR was registered against the children home for girls run by the Missionaries of Charity on Tuesday for allegedly carrying out forceful religious conversion of children studying there, but a nun there has denied the allegations.     

Makarpura ACP SB Kumpawat said, "An FIR has been registered against the children home for girls run by Missionaries of Charity for allegedly carrying out forced conversion of children there."

The NCPCR chairman had made a visit to this children's home in August this year and wrote a letter to the district collector asking to file a complaint against the institute after he found some anomalies, said the ACP. 

"A committee was formed to investigate the case and it made a visit to the place on December 10. During its visit, it noticed various things related to the religious conversion of children, marriages being done in other communities, children being made to read the Bible and wear a cross and submitted a report.  Based on that, a case was registered," said the officer.    
However, Rose Teresa, one of the nuns of the institute denied the allegations. -- ANI
