The arrest of two Catholic nuns from Kerala in Chhattisgarh has sparked political tensions, with allegations of human trafficking and forced religious conversion. The Congress, CPI(M), and other minority rights advocates criticize the arrests, viewing them as part of a broader pattern of minority persecution in BJP-ruled areas.

The politically-charged arrest of two Catholic nuns from Kerala in Chhattisgarh has drawn fierce criticism from Congress and CPI(M), igniting debates over human trafficking and religious conversion charges.

Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai defended the arrests, emphasizing women's safety concerns, as protests grew in Kerala, led by political leaders like Rahul Gandhi.
