In rural India, Hindu nationalist groups are pressuring Christian converts — many from the marginalized Adivasi community — to return to Hinduism.

DW follows BJP local leader Raja Ram Todem as he confronts a Christian who converted after receiving medical help from missionaries. The man is then subjected to a forced "reconversion" ceremony, part of a broader campaign targeting religious minorities.

The crackdown includes denying burial rights to Christians, as seen in the case of another man, whose father was buried far from his ancestral land. Local pastors warn that rising sectarian tensions are eroding religious freedom and fueling fear among Christian communities.
