Former Minister and BJP MLC A.H.Vishwanath has expressed his opposition to the anti-conversion Bill tabled in the Assembly and said that it violated the provisions of the Constitution.
Addressing mediapersons here on Thursday he said the Constitution provides freedom to pursue religion of one’s choice and religious leaders have always preached harmony in society. The 12th century reformer-saint Basavanna preached universal human values and did not espouse any division but Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai is set to change the status quo which will not win him any admirers or get societal approval.
He said inter-community marriages were common and one could not be jailed for that. Restrictions were being imposed on freedom to pursue the religion of one’s choice. Wondering whether the bill would in any way help the State make progress, Mr.Vishwanath questioned the need for such hasty introduction of the bill even without a debate.
