The son of a Hindu man named Budhram deceitfully buried his father’s deceased body according to Christian customs rather than cremating it as per the Hindu rituals, in exchange for money, said a news report.
The incident occurred in the Atariya Vangram village of Khudia Police Outpost in Mungeli District, Chattisgarh.
Budhram and his family belong to the Baiga tribe. Out of 2 of his sons, the younger one was brainwashed and persuaded to convert to Christianity and bury his deceased father according to Christian rituals and be monetarily rewarded for it.
Once again the mind of the sinful act were “outsiders” who were misleading the innocent tribal people about their faith and luring them to convert by offering money.
When the root cause behind it was dug deeper it came forth that his ongoing conspiracy was acquired, it was revealed that the game of conversion was being carried out by a certain institution active in the area for numerous years. The local villagers stated that about 20 years ago, people of the Oraon caste from Surguja burgled their villages and polluted their culture, disturbing the existing peace and harmony of the village. These ‘outsiders’ started persuading the indigenous Baiga tribals to convert to Christianity by luring them with money and various other resources.
The irate locals demanded strict action against these ‘outsiders’ who are duping and converting innocent tribals to their religion.
