Print Bangalore, 11 January 2011: Alleging a fresh case of attack on a pastor, the Global Council of Indian Christians today appealed to Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa to honour his promise of protecting the interests of minorities and ensuring their safety.
Pastor Isaac Samuel was recently attacked in Davanagere by a right wing outfit, despite the fact he faced no charges of indulging in conversions, President of the council Sajan George alleged at a press conference here.
George claimed that police registered a case in this connection, but later arrested the pastor for "no fault".
"There is fear among the Christian community. We do not feel safe in the state," Benedict Balu, president of ’Karnataka Christiranga’, said.

| I fully agree with karnataka christa ranga, when it says that Christian Community is not safe . Knowing the drama of false statements and changing the versions very frequently by BSY, many leaders are in support for BJP for the reasons best known for them. They go to Church and come back and back BJP. This gives more courage to BJP/RSS to advance against churches and institutions. On the background of the corrupt practices our Church leaders also practiice the same and thus demoralize the anti corruption activists. There is double standard and practice among Church Leaders and they play and practice corruption and try to keep away the clean and faithful laity in church matters. This must be checked. Karnataka Christiranga, if gives call for protests like strike etc. against the BSY style of functioning, it is right time and it is now. | |
