During \"The Kandhamal Riots\", hundreds were killed, women were raped, and the elderly were tortured. Entire villages were destroyed, children were orphaned, and innocents were arrested for their Christian faith.\u003cbr\u003eTo the north in Kashmir, there is an ongoing battle between the Indian government and Islamic terrorist groups. Caught in the crossfire are Christians, who, if found to be Believers are murdered at the hands of radical Muslims, as per state law.\u003cbr\u003eIn the capital city of New Delhi, international organizations providing orphan care and education was forced to cease operations in India in 2017.
