On 4th March 2019, Hindutva extremists put false allegation of forceful religious conversion and arrested the Christians in Masko village, Khunti District of Jharkhand.
Every year villagers demand goods and valuables from the Christians for the hindu festivals or hindu idols. This year they demanded around Rs.1100/- and they were not able to donate. Then the extremists put false allegation of forceful religious conversion and also informed the forest department that the Christians are stealing woods from the forest and the extremists forcefully took the families to the forest department to get them arrested.
