The National Human Rights Commission has demanded an action-taken report regarding allegations that 556 Hindu children are being targeted for religious conversion in 27 unauthorized madrasas across Madhya Pradesh's Morena district. The complaint suggests these institutions are teaching religious texts without parental consent or government approval, potentially violating multiple laws including the Juvenile Justice Act and constitutional provisions.
