Indian children smuggled for purposes of Christian conversion
Jaipur, INDIA Feb 19 : Rajasthan government today ordered an inquiry into the allegation that a Christian missionary brought 250 children to Kota from outside the state for converting them to Christianity, an official spokesman said here today.

Ordering the inquiry into the case, Social Welfare Minister Madan Dilawar has rushed a team of four senior officials to Kota to hold a detailed probe, the spokesman said.

The minister ordered the inquiry after receiving reports that local people were protesting against bringing of the children, described as orphans, by Immanual Mission, allegedly promising them 250 rupees each and food, he said....

Dilawar, in a statement, said the "government would not tolerate any effort of religious conversion by allurement or force and will not hesitate in taking stern action against guilty persons".
