Kumbadaje is one of the poorly developed Panchayat in Kasaragod district because of cumbersome negligence of ruling parties at District level. Most of MLA and MP were selected from either Congress backed UDF or Communist lead LDF. Both the parties has shown massive negligence about uplifting this village since Independence.

Taking advantage of this scenario, few men belongs Christian missionaries arrived Marpanadka of the same panchayat in a car numbered ‘KL-59′ and were distributing the pamphlets, different write-ups, books etc and prompting the villagers to convert to Christianity. “They distributed these Pamphlet in Lakshamveed Area, few Dalit Colonies. Notable point is that these Christian Missionaries target only Hindu families of the Village” said a local school teacher.

Local units of Rashtreeya Swayamsevak Sangh. Vishwa Hindu Parishat has condemned the conversion attempts and congratulated the villagers for the timely alertness.
