Extremists Launch Attacks Against Christians in Second Indian State
From Gospel for Asia:
“India is in a scary situation,” says Gospel for Asia President K.P. Yohannan. “While violence continues in Orissa, on India’s east coast, anti-Christian extremists have unleashed another wave of attacks on Christians in Karnataka, a state on India’s west coast.
“At the same time, churches are under attack in Jharkand and other states, and Muslim extremists have set off bombs in Delhi.
“But we know that, in the end, the future is bright, because Jesus is with His church.”
On Sunday, Hindu mobs rushed into churches and prayer centers of many different denominations in Karnataka, attacking Christians during their times of worship. The extremists then destroyed the church buildings and their properties. At least 11 churches were destroyed, including at least one led by Gospel for Asia missionaries.
Christians responded with protest rallies, and more than 60 extremists have been detained by authorities as a result of Sunday’s attacks.
“What we saw in Orissa was a well thought-out and detailed agenda to eradicate Christians from the state,” said Dr. Yohannan. “As you can see, the same pattern is being followed in Karnataka. It is well planned and orchestrated by Hindu radicals.”

It is sad to see that VHP/ Bajrang Dal are getting the largest contribution from US. This money supplied from US is used to bring down Churches and tribals in India.
The BJP, Bajrang Dal, RSS and VHP which are anti-chritian are a bigger danger than terrorist organisations. They must be banned and their fund raising should be stopped.
Time to wake up and stand up to call of sane and secular Indians!
