The case of religious conversion and sexual harassment related to TCS office in Nashik, Maharashtra reached the Supreme Court on Thursday. A petition has been filed in the court demanding instructions to the Central and State Governments to take strict action.
A suo motu case related to religious conversion is already pending in the Supreme Court. A new application has been filed in the same case regarding TCS case of Nashik.
The petition has been filed by lawyer Ashwini Kumar Upadhyay. It was said in the petition that this is not just a matter of conversion, but a planned game against the country. He said that fraudulent conversion is a threat to the sovereignty, secularism and independence of the country. Conversion done forcibly or fraudulently through any organization should be kept in the category of terrorist act.
Three major allegations were made in the petition…
- Changing religion through force or fraud is a serious threat to the country. When this work is done as part of a big organized and pressure-driven campaign, then it should be considered a terrorist act.
- This forced or fraudulent conversion is not an isolated religious incident, but a well-planned conspiracy. Foreign powers often finance this conspiracy. Its objective is to change the religious population balance of the country which poses a threat to the unity, integrity and security of India.
- The right to freedom of religion does not allow anyone to convert through deception, pressure, greed or coercion. Citing Article 25 of the Constitution, it has been said that this right is subject to conditions like public order, morality and health.
Two demands were made from the court…
- The Central Government and all the State Governments should be instructed to take strict steps so that religious conversion through fraud or force can be stopped.
- Central and state governments should be instructed to create separate special courts to hear cases of religious conversion.
Describing this issue as serious, the court asked Attorney General R. Had sought help from Venkataramani. The court had then said that the issue of religious conversion is serious and it should not be given a political colour. This petition has been filed under the same pending case, in which strict steps have been demanded to stop fraudulent religious conversion across the country.
The company gave work from home to its employees
Keeping in mind the safety and convenience of the employees, the company asked the staff of Nashik office to work from home. According to sources, this step has been taken in view of the current situation. During the investigation, the police have found about 78 suspicious call records, emails and chats. Indications of some financial transactions have also emerged.
So far 7 accused have been arrested in this case. The accused used to select ‘targets’ on the basis of personal information of newly joined employees. Especially economically weak employees and those suffering from family problems were targeted.
The police presented the arrested accused in Nashik court on 9 April.
Not cooperating in investigation of financial transactions
When the victim girls complained against the accused, Ashwini deliberately ignored the complaint. On the contrary, he reprimanded the victim. He was produced in the court after his three-day custody ended on Monday. She is not cooperating with the police at all in the investigation of financial transactions. Therefore, his custody for five days was sought. However, the court sent him to custody for two days.
Investigation has also revealed that objectionable comments were made on Hindu Gods and Goddesses during the training. When the victims were distressed, the HR manager would contact them, gain their trust and gradually pressure them to change their lifestyle.
