Rise in religious extremist groups’ ‘attempts to trap’ Christian girls in love entanglements, claims Pastoral letter

The letter, however, did not specify any particular extremist groups.

The letter said that sorrows of parents whose children are allegedly “caught in the bait of religious extremists” can be taken up in the prayers during the fasting period. It also said that there is a need for creating awareness to prevent children from falling into such traps.

For this a religious awareness centre has been set up under the Thalassery Archdiocese, the letter has said.
