I am working in #jk for years now.... I have faced attempts of love jihad in many forms...
Once a very learned phd holder Kashmiri guy with whom I was sharing a project of iccsr, he usually use to text me about project details... he started giving me his resources to perform my part in the project... we started talking about random topics... I was amazed to know his
Information about my religion and other topics...it continued with hints and shadows which I can’t put in words... once we were sitting and talking... he started saying, you know my grandmother always says... shadi to kundali se hi ho honi chahiye... kisi hindu se kar lo par kisi
Algawwaadi ke pariwar se na karo... to romsa tumahre yaha koi caste ya religion ka ‘ORTHODOX’ to nahi.... mere kaan hi sunn ho Gaye.... I was like ‘e jaun ho ta u tohare sath kaise ey bahini’ I changed the topic...after that event her younger brother started calling me for lunch
At there place, after that her mother called me over for Kashmiri wazwan... and again all those hints... singing songs and sending me...referring about my physical features...I got fed up of it and once I asked...so you are saying you can change your religion and your family will
Be ok with it...? If you marry a hindu girl... and he started smiling... I got courage and asked... listen, this is not what they call ‘love jihad’ ? His face got pale... he started laughing awkwardly.... and that was end of one story....
