Yogi cabinet approves draft ordinance on religious conversions

Justice Aditya Mittal, the Chairman of the Law Commission, said, "The term 'love jihad' has not been used in the Bill, and conversions related to all religions will be covered under the new law. To be precise, it will not just be focused on Hindu-Muslim conversions or conversions for the specific purpose of marriage."

In the proposed Bill, there is a provision of a five to 10-year jail term for a person convicted in such a case.
