Two days after the incident, the president of Hindu Janjagaran Samiti, Yagnesh Patel, who happens to be deputy sarpanch of Kwant, submitted a memorandum to the state government authorities against the missionaries alleging they had gone to Badiya village for converting the tribals. “We are investigating the complaint,” says Kwant Mamlatdar Rushin Bhatt.
“It is a false accusation,” says Rodrigues, adding that the Don Bosco Education Society and the Dominican Sisters have been working for over 20 years in this tribal belt running a school and hostels for tribal boys and girls.
