  Remember the diabolic attacks on Christians in Kandhamal, Odisha in two consecutive years 2007 & 2008.

Over 395 churches and worship places which belonged to the Adivasi Christians and Dalit Christians were destroyed, around 6,500 houses were destroyed, over 100 people were killed, over 40 women were subjected to rape, molestation and humiliation and several educational, social service and health institutions were destroyed and looted. More than 75,000 people have been displaced. Several cases of forced conversion to Hinduism have been reported.

  ‘Identity politics’ both makes it impossible to fight the authoritarian regime and its human rights violations, and often itself is the source of violations.
