"This is part of an ongoing campaign against Christians to discredit their work among the poor and the downtrodden. The diocese carries out several welfare programs among the poor, especially educating poor children and providing them with hostels and other facilities. When they get educated, they begin to oppose atrocities, exploitation and other social evils and therefore some vested interest groups opposed to their growth are targeting our institutions."
