Tribal outreach by Hindus a must to prevent conversion – Mahendra Rajpurohit, Agniveer, Navsari, Gujarat

Mr. Mahendra Rajpurohit

Ramnathi, June 21 (Corr.) – There is a ploy by the Christian missionaries to convert the tribals. The missionaries provide financial assistance to the tribals to create a favourable impression in their minds. This is followed by conversion. These Christians go to the houses of the tribals and foster familiarity, learn and try to solve their issues. Hindu organisations don’t even reach the tribal areas and yet claim that ‘tribals and converted’. Every tribal family has a tulsi planted in front of their house, they wear the tilak. Each house has cattle. Despite this, if they are converting, then it is worth contemplating why. To prevent the conversion of tribals, Hindus have to go to the grassroot level and awaken Dharma in the tribals. We [Agniveer] reached out to tribal families to prevent their conversion. We organised mass marriages of tribal youths, sports for youth and tried to provide employment to women. So far we have reconverted 9 thousand tribal brothers and sisters. Mr Mahendra Rajpurohit of Agniveer (Navsari, Gujarat) said that we should be proud that our ancestors did not leave Hindu Dharma despite the Mughals and British atrocities. He was addressing the audience on Day 6 of the Vaishvik Hindu Rashtra Mahotsav (on 21.6.2023).
