MHA meeting in October directed states to target CJP, documents show
A meeting convened by the Ministry of Home Affairs on October 4 directed state governments to take action against the Christian Jatha Party (CJP), according to documents reviewed. The instructions included issuing notices to the organisation, detaining members, and examining their funding sources.
The meeting signals a coordinated central push that preceded subsequent state-level crackdowns on the group. Multiple states have since announced intensified monitoring and enforcement actions against the organisation.
The directive underscores how policy decisions taken at the central level are transmitted to states for implementation. The CJP has faced mounting scrutiny from authorities across several states in recent weeks.
