In a new book, a journalist tries to understand India’s deep suspicion of Hindu-Muslim couples

This excerpt from a journalist's account describes a visit to the office of the Superintendent of Police in Uttar Pradesh's Sambhal district in 2025. The journalist reflects on the setting, including interactions with local officers and the environment, and notes the unexpected casual demeanor of SP Krishan Bishnoi, who appears unburdened by the typical formalities associated with his role. The narrative hints at the broader context of the journalist's investigation into societal issues related to interfaith relationships, particularly the controversy surrounding 'love jihad' cases in India. The SP's personal reflections and the journalist's observations suggest a deeper exploration of the social and political dynamics affecting such sensitive topics.
