Uttar Pradesh Assembly on Tuesday passed the controversial "Love Jihad" Bill. This new law includes stringent provisions, with life imprisonment as a potential penalty for those found guilty of offences related to love jihad. Under the amended provisions of the Uttar Pradesh Prohibition of Unlawful Conversion of Religion Bill, 2024, if a person threatens, attacks, marries or promises to marry or conspires for it or traffics a woman, minor or anyone with the intention of conversion, then his crime will be placed in the most serious category. The amended bill provides for 20-year imprisonment or life imprisonment in such cases.
