NEW DELHI — Days after the reports of alleged Sikh girls being abducted and forcefully converted to Islam, a delegation of All Sikh Gurudwara Management Committee – Kashmir met Union Home Minister Amit Shah here on Sunday.
Taking to twitter, Mr Shah said, “Met a delegation from All Sikh Gurudwara Mangaement Committee- Kashmir”.
Though, the details of the meeting was not shared with media, it is understood that the Sikh body representatives have demanded an anti-conversion law for Jammu and Kashmir like Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh, to prevent forceful conversion in the Union Territory of J&K.

The Sri Akal Takhat Sahib, the highest temporal seat of Sikhism, had taken a serious view of reports of Sikh girls falling victim to ‘love jihad’ and has written to Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant-Governor Manoj Sinha seeking a law to prevent forceful religious conversion and marriage. — (AGENCY)
