The Government must: Raise the Issue of persecution diplomatically with India; Publicly Acknowledge and Condemn this Persecution; Raise the Issue at International Forums; and Encourage Accountability and Rule of Law in India.

We believe that being a Christian in India today has become increasingly difficult, unsafe, and distressing. Under the present political climate, incidents of persecution, discrimination, and violence against Christians have risen at what we believe is an alarming rate. We believe that the Government’s voice, influence, and moral leadership can make a meaningful difference. History reminds us that when injustice is confronted with courage and compassion, change becomes possible.
