In Hajipur, Bihar, pastor Babu David of Assembly of God Church was intimidated by the radical Hindu leaders. On 13 May 2008, Wednesday morning, the Pastor with his wife and three Bible school students, went to a nearby school and with permission distributed Book of Hope to the students. While they were distributing books, all of sudden a mob of Hindu extremists entered the school campus and snatched the books and beaten the Pastor and misbehaved with the ladies. They were abusing and trying to take all of them to the Police Station. But somehow they escaped from there.
The following day they gathered all the leaders of Hindu extremist organization like – Bajrang Dal, V.H.P., R.S.S., Dharm Jagran etc. and had a meeting to get the Pastor and workers arrested. They brought many false accusations against them. It came in the local newspapers also.
Right now the Pastor and the family have shifted to Patna office until the matters get cool down. Please pray for them and as well as for the Hajipur church.
