Conversion to any other religion is a threat to their society. But Christianity could mean desaster because once people discover the only way to God, conversion epidemic will follow.
The thrust of conversions is among the Cast population, the non-belongers to India. They find real freedom in Christianity - in more than one way - from the segragation and opression; something they cannot find in any other religion like Islam.
Hindus are lobbying sucessfuly for the abolishment of this anti-conversion law. Many thousands of conversions are reported daily dispite the law. It is also important to state that many forced reconversion to Hinduism (and to Islam) are common.
