In the upmarket Bharwara Estate Colony, Gomti Nagar Extension, in Lucknow three houses transformed into an unofficial church, gathering hundreds of Hindus for religious activities every Sunday. The illegal religious centre operated for seven years, unnoticed by most, until it was raided on February 9. Despite allegations of illegal conversions and a public outcry, authorities have yet to file an FIR, leaving many questions unanswered. Hindu activists arrived at the site and uncovered an unofficial church operating inside three homes in the upscale residential colony. A Yeshu Prarthana Sabha, with over 200 Hindus in attendance, was underway when the raid took place. Police were called, and videos and photos of the protest circulated quickly.
