Days after the UP’s Unlawful Religious Conversion Prohibition Ordinance is passed, right-wing elements begin using the law to prevent peaceful weddings.

Lucknow police stopped an interfaith wedding of a Muslim man and Hindu woman on December 2, 2020 claiming the couple require a clearance from the District Magistrate under the Uttar Pradesh Unlawful Religious Conversion Prohibition Ordinance (2020.)

Citing the ordinance passed a week ago by Governor Anandiben Patel to stop unlawful conversion, the police stopped the wedding minutes before the ceremony began in the Para area of the city.

The bridge and groom were taken to the police station where they were asked to get the permission of the District Magistrate (DM) for the marriage as per the new law. The couple have agreed to wait for the approval of the DM.

Although both parties in the wedding were consenting, members of the Hindu Yuva Vahini objected to the wedding and compelled the police to stop the wedding.

The Unlawful Religious Conversion Prohibition law incriminates religious conversions that use falsehood, force or an incentive, or take place solely for marriage and demands an acknowledgement from the DM at least two months before consenting parties tie the knot. Further, the law puts the onus of proving any lack of pressure for the conversion on the individual opting for the conversion.
