The ordinance provides for a jail term of 1-5 years with Rs 15,000 penalty for forceful religious conversion. Four other BJP-ruled states — Karnataka, Assam, Haryana are Madhya Pradesh — are also mulling to bring similar law against 'love jihad'.

"Intruders" was a reference to illegal Bangladeshis, Pakistanis and Rohingyas who allegedly live in the city. Watch First Up for more.
