Tension prevailed at Vedavakkam village in Chengalpattu district after a group of Christian missionaries allegedly attempted to convert Hindu labourers working under the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) scheme.
According to local sources, the missionaries had reportedly approached workers at a government worksite and began speaking to them about religion, allegedly urging them to embrace Christianity.
Upon receiving information, members of Hindu Munnani arrived at the site and confronted the group. The activists accused the missionaries of attempting religious conversion during working hours at a government-funded site.
The situation was diffused after the Hindu activists reportedly prevented the conversion attempt and asked the missionaries to leave the area.
