Chandak claimed that the situation changed after his wife’s family and people in her village came to know that he was Hindu. “Initially, everything was normal. I stayed at their house for around ten days, and her family treated me well. There was no discussion about religious conversion at that time.
He claimed that his mother-in-law subsequently contacted him and asked him to come so that the family could resolve their differences.
The pressure started much later, after people in the village came to know that she had married a Hindu man,” Chandak told NDTV.
