India — The Rashtriya Christian Morcha, or the National Christian Front (NCF), organized nationwide protests that will occur on June 9 throughout India in response to the ongoing and escalating violence against Christians.

The NCF, which collaborates with BAMCEF (All India Backward and Minority Communities Employees Federation) and Bharat Mukti Morcha for the welfare of Christians, sent a letter to Christian leaders nationwide, urging them to stand united against violence and participate in the rallies.

Apart from the protests, the NCF aims to build solidarity between Christian communities and indigenous peoples of India, like the Schedule Castes (SC), Schedule Tribes (ST), and Other Backward Castes (OBC), all of which are marginalized populations in India.

The National Backward Class Front, National Tribal Unity Council, and National Muslim Front also support the NCF’s efforts to stand for minority religions in Hindu-majority India.

With the tagline of “stand up for justice” and “stand together in faith,” the goal of the protest rally is to get the federal government — the Hindu-nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) — to see that Christians are united against the increasing violence and atrocities being perpetrated against them.

“Our Christian brothers and sisters are enduring brutal attacks and growing intolerance from anti-social elements,” a statement issued by the Odisha chapter of NCF said. “This is not merely a Christian issue — it is a grave concern for humanity, for peace, and for the values enshrined in our Constitution.”

Calling upon Christians to rise together, the statement signed by a prominent bishop says, “We call upon you to stand united — for justice, dignity, and the freedom to practice our faith without fear. This rally is not just a protest — it is a movement of hope, a stand for truth, and a call for unity.”

After the June 9 protest rally, a memorandum will be subsequently submitted to India’s president.
BAMCEF and Bharat Mukti Morcha are two prominent non-religious political organizations that are backing the protest rally.

Waman Meshram, the national president of the two organizations, issued a statement saying the protest is against the discrimination and atrocities being committed based on religion against Indian native Christians.

“For this, all the workers of the two organizations are informed that they and all other offshoot wings should join this movement on a large scale and make it successful,” Meshram said.
