Itanagar, Feb 18: Members from the Arunachal Anti-Conversion Christian Forum (ACF) on Monday observed an eight-hour-long hunger strike to protest against the implementation of the Arunachal Pradesh Freedom of Religion Act (APFRA), 1978.
ACF Secretary General James Techi Tara, President Tarh Miri and other leaders of the forum addressed the gathering and explained how the act, when implemented, would harm the Christians.
The ACF earlier this month announced their series of agitations after Chief Minister Pema Khandu said that the Arunachal Pradesh Freedom of Religion Act, 1978 – dormant until now – would soon have its rules framed and implemented in the state.
After the ACF announced its agitation against the implementation of the law, the Chief Minister also said that the state government is ready to hold discussions on the issue and reassured that the proposed rules under the Act are not against any religious community.
