Days after the Karnataka gov passed the anti-conversion Bill, BJP MP Tejasvi Surya wants ‘re-conversion’ of Muslims, Christians to Hinduism.
Tejasvi Surya wants ‘re-conversion’ of Muslims, Christians to Hinduism, asking Mutts in his conference to set targets and calling for ‘ghar wapsi’ (religious conversion to Hinduism) of Muslims and Christians in India.
Speaking at an event held at the Udupi Krishna Mutt on Saturday, December 25, the MP said that in order to make the Hindu ideology stronger, “Western” ideas such as Communism, “Meccaism” and colonialism – forces that he believes aim to “destroy” the Sanatan Dharma – must be understood, in order to “defeat the enemy.” “If you do not know who your enemy is, you can never put up a defense,” he said, adding that identifying those who are responsible for trying to erase Hinduism from the world “is essential” for the survival of the Hindu race.
In the recent speech in Udupi, the MP said that groups who converted to other religions during the course of India’s history must be reconverted to Hinduism on a “war footing.”

Videos of this inflammatory speech by Tejasvi Surya, which was live-streamed on Saturday, have gone viral on social media. In one such clip, he is heard saying, “The only option left for the Hindus is to re-convert all those who have gone out of the Hindu fold. There is no other solution. We wonder whether it is possible because it does not come naturally to us. But today, we must evolve. This metamorphosis must come in our DNA.”
