Speaking about the anti-conversion law at a news conference, Dharmendra said on Friday, June 23, "How could one be forcefully converted to another religion. State government said they will not do hatred politics but repealing this act has proved that they are doing hatred politics."
He stated, “No changes should be brought in the state syllabus. We have decided to move a public interest litigation (PIL) in the court on bringing changes in state syllabus.
