What Will Chhangur Baba Reveal Next? UP Police Grill Key Faces in Conversion Case
With police custody granted till July 16, UP ATS digs deeper into the country-wide religious conversion racket involving Chhangur Baba and his close aide Nasreen.

Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], July 10: Chhangur Baba was once a simple astrologer in rural Uttar Pradesh. But his story changed after spending time in Mumbai and Saudi Arabia. Now, he stands as the key accused in a major religious conversion racket. The UP Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) believes his influence grew through foreign funding and deep-rooted connections. His arrest has shocked many, but the deeper layers are just starting to unfold.
Police Get Seven Days to Question the Accused Chhangur Baba
The UP ATS has received a seven-day police custody remand for Chhangur Baba and his close associate Nasreen, also known as Neetu Naveen Rohra. They were earlier lodged in Lucknow jail since Saturday. This remand allows police to directly question them till July 16. Officers say this time is crucial to extract real information about the inner working of the conversion racket operating across states.
Two Lists of Questions for Chhangur Baba & Neetu
ATS officers have carefully prepared separate question lists for both accused. One is meant for individual questioning, and the other will be used when they are brought face to face. This method, officials say, helps in catching mismatches in their answers. The focus will be on learning how conversions were planned, who financed them, and what methods were used to convince people to change religion.

Who Else Is Involved other than Chhangur Baba? Bigger Names Expected
Officials believe the racket may not be limited to just two people. The questioning could lead to names of other associates, supporters, and even people in high positions who may have helped them. There is also suspicion of government land being illegally grabbed as part of this plan. The involvement of government officials is a serious angle that the ATS is now actively looking into.
Conversion, Funding, and a Larger Network
The officers are trying to understand if the racket has international links. There are concerns about foreign money being used to fund these activities. Nasreen will be asked how she entered the racket and what role she played. Officers suspect that influence, relationships, and even cash rewards may have played a role in these conversions. With more grilling ahead, deeper secrets may be revealed soon.
