The Madhya Pradesh government has provided a sentence of five years in its proposed bill. Other states of the country are also preparing to enact such a law. In common parlance, cases called love jihad involve incidents of inter-religious marriages by seducing, lying, or forcibly converting. The proposed law will apply equally to people of all religions.

What did Gehlot say
