Love Jihad also called Romeo Jihad, is an alleged activity under which some young Muslim boys and men reportedly target college girls belonging to non-Muslim communities for conversion to Islam by feigning love. While similar activities have been reported elsewhere, the term has been used to describe the activity in India. The allegations have raised concerns in various Hindu and Christian organizations, while Muslim organisations in Kerala have denied that they are true. Officials in India took concerns seriously and investigations were launched in 2009 in Kerala and Karnataka, but no organised activity of the sort has been confirmed in those investigations. In January 2012, Kerala police declared that Love Jihad was "[a] campaign with no substance", bringing legal proceeding instead against the website hindujagruti.org for "spreading religious hatred and false propaganda."
Love Jihad was alleged to be conducted in Kerala and Mangalore the coastal Karnataka region. According to Kerala Catholic Bishops Council, up to 4,500 girls in Kerala have been targeted, whereas Hindu Janajagruti Samiti claimed that 30,000 girls have been converted in Karnataka alone.Sree Narayana Dharma Paripalana general secretary Vellapally Natesan said that there had been reports in Narayaneeya communities of "Love Jihad" attempts.
