Controversy over the burial of the dead body, the deceased had converted

Kondagaon. After conversion in Chhattisgarh, such cases often come to the fore in which there is a dispute regarding the burial of the dead body after the death of someone in the family of the convert. One such case has come to the fore from Jaitpuri village, where there was a dispute over the last rites. Actually, this case pertains to Jaitpuri village of Kotwali area, where after the death of a young man, there was a dispute over the burial of his dead body in the village. The reason for this dispute was nothing but conversion. It is being told that the young man had converted his religion due to which the villagers did not allow the dead body of the young man to be cremated in the village.
