The Hindu Lit Fest 2024 | ‘As citizens we are deeply anxious about the impact of these falsehoods in real life’

The Hindu  

Three journalists, Sreenivasan Jain, Mariyam Alavi and Supriya Sharma, put their heads together to address widely floated conspiracy theories such as love jihad, forced conversions and population jihad in their new book, Love Jihad and Other Fictions. There was a certain frustration in the way it was getting approached, a kind of ‘he said, she said approach,’ specially true for TV where you debate the idea of love jihad or population jihad. The Home Ministry told Parliament there is no legal definition of love jihad; it still gets recycled, gets prime-time space, it is even getting passed as a legislation. Even if you take something like love jihad and ask those who propagate it, you will probably get six different answers.
