Christian mother forced to move after arrest

A Christian mother of three arrested in northern India for trying to convert another woman to Christ has been transferred 130 miles from her home by her government employer.

Archana Jaiswal, a state education board employee and former Hindu who put her faith in Christ, says the accusations against her are false and her decision to follow Christ is a personal one.

Jaiswal must begin work in Dharamshala as soon as possible, even though her employers have withheld her pay since she converted to Christianity.

Jaiswal said her husband is a policeman in a neighboring district and a supporter of the Hindu extremist party. She added she is praying for the salvation of her husband and children. (MS)
