In a communication, the Home Ministry told the state government to give a
detailed report about the incident, whether it was a forceful or
willful conversion and people and organisation which initiated the
process.
The alleged forced reconversion of about 100 people to Hinduism in Agra set off a chorus of criticism against the government by the opposition inside and outside Parliament even as an FIR was filed against an RSS wing behind the incident.
The issue triggered a war of words between Opposition and treasury benches, even as the government expressed readiness for a debate and possible legislation on conversions.
The Opposition members said the issue could have grave consequences like causing riots.
Speaker Sumitra Mahajan declined to suspend the Question Hour, saying she would allow Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge to speak later during the Zero Hour and if necessary allow a discussion.
Her repeated pleas failed and the opposition continued to raise the slogan 'Hindu, Muslim, Sikhs bhai bhai'.
