Imposition of an Illegal Church Thwarted

Imposition of an Illegal Church Thwarted

Aasheervad TV is an evangelical telecast company.  Recently it bought 20 grounds of land in Manjambakkam off Chennai with the stated purpose of building the TV network office. But one fine morning, about 20000 chairs were brought in trucks and several bus loads of Christians landed on the site. The locals understood what it was. A church was being imposed on the neighbourhood. They protested. Called in the police and also informed Hindu Munnani.  They confronted the Church group with documents that District Collector had refused permission to put up a Church there.  So the bus loads of Christians and truck loads of chairs had to beat a hurried retreat.
