Regardless, Italy does not forbid converting to another religion, which is the issue at hand. Changing the subject does not address the issue.

Italy does not recognise Hinduism and does not allow temples to be built and you say they allow conversions? Who are you kidding?

India has much more religious freedom even with the anti-conversion laws. Anti-conversion laws does not prevent voluntary conversion just that its meant to prevent organised conversion activity carried out by missionaries.

The topic here is "religious freedom" and Italy has none at least for the Hindus.

Anti-conversion laws do not disallow a person to change his or her religion.

They are a misnomer, in that they disallow active proselytisation, on the grounds of prevention of cross-communal violence as seen in the gruesome staines murder.
