The two nuns arrested by the Chhattisgarh police on July 25, over charges of human trafficking and forceful conversion, have been granted bail by the NIA court in Bilaspur. The court granted bail, saying that there was no need to keep them in custody. Though the nuns got bail, the controversy the arrest generated in Kerala will continue to haunt the BJP in Kerala, which has been trying to placate the Christian community to make inroads into Kerala, ahead of the local body elections later this year and the assembly election early next year.
