Kerala yet to submit report on conversions: Hansraj Ahir

The Kerala government is yet to submit an inquiry report sought by the Centre on alleged religious conversions taking place in Malappuram district, Union Minister of State for Home Hansraj Ahir said.
"There is a big centre...That centre is in Malappuram district (in Kerala)," the minister said alleging, "Conversions take place there. In a month, about 1,000 people are converted. There is a report that Hindus and Christians are made Muslims."
"I went there in May. I had a meeting with DG, ... Chief Secretary. I told them, what is this centre that 1,000 (people) are converted in a month. On what basis? Do they take advantage of poverty, give warnings, talk about employment. What do they do? Find out. The matter is coming out," Ahir told PTI here.

The minister was responding to a query on the NIA indicating a "pattern" vis-a-vis issue of 'love jihad' in the Supreme Court while dealing with the matter.
Ahir, however, did not comment on the issue, noting that it is sub-judice.
The minister was here to attend programmes organised by the Telangana unit of the BJP yesterday.
"The state government (in LDF-ruled Kerala) has not yet sent any report after inquiring the issue though I had asked for it," the minister said.
"Now, the NIA (National Investigation Agency) has been entrusted with the inquiry. Whatever is there, it will come out after the inquiry. But, even after we have written, the government has not sent its inquiry report," Ahir said.
