Restrictions on Arali flowers at Travancore temple following death of woman

Mar Joseph Pamplany, the Metropolitan Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Thalassery, has reiterated that the ‘love traps’ targeting young women belonging to the Christian community are real and that he is making the statement based on solid facts.
Speaking to a Malayalam news channel, Mar Joseph Pamplany the other day said that his comments against love traps cannot be seen as rivalry against any religion. “These are factual statements. My statement does not invoke religious rivalry. I am only pointing out the concern of parents about their children treading on the wrong paths,” he said
Love that resets the course of a woman’s life and jeopardises her future is not true love. Those are all traps, he said. Details of the girls who had entangled in such love traps are with the church and based on these details that he made such a statement, he said and added that it was not against any religion
