In Rajasthan’s Kota district, three teachers were suspended by the education ministry after a local Hindu group, Sarva Hindu Samaj submitted a memorandum alleging religious conversion and attempted love jihad.
The media then run stories about the suspension of teachers citing alleged conversion and love of Jihad. However, the subsequent protest of the students against the suspension of their teachers, refuting the allegations and demanding the withdrawal of the teachers’ suspension received ‘very little’ attention from the mainstream media.
