Conversion of religion

Law - you hve a right to covert

Procedure - agreed with Ms SImi Saluja.

Renouncing your religion and opting another is your Right.

Do consider the aspects of how the conversion will effect your rights in every way.

A Kazi should be an ideal procedural guide

Please keep in mind, that while professing a religion of your choice is a Fundamental right, do think about conversion with foresight and keeping in mind families etc. 

However, not only will you require the help of a Religious leader etc but also will have to officially announce your change of religion.

First visit a local mosque, approach the Chief Kazi, express your desire, observe the formalities and comply with the further requirements.

Article 25 of the Constitution of India grants to the citizens of all religious persuasions, freedom to profess, practise and propagate their faith in a way that does not disrupt public order and does not affect public health and morality adversely. So, that way you have the freedom of faith of your choice. However, please be advised that certain states in India have enacted anti-conversion laws which lay down the procedure be to followed for conversion from one religion to another. As per my knowledge, such laws exist at least in the states of Orissa, Himachal Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, and Arunachal Pradesh. I am not aware about other states. So, please consult the relevant anti-conversion law, if any, in your state.

well elaborated.
