Its people from the stronger/obstinate/orthodox religions that force the other person to convert.

Very very rearely would you see a devout Christian converting to Hindusim ? Again, I repeat a devout Christian and not a person who would go to a church once in 6 months.

Its more of a convenience or a Jugaad to get things moving. Suppose a person wants to marry a person from another religion, then the parents of the person in then more conservative group think "What would our relatives think? What would they say ...blah blah..." So placate them and these fears they force the more submissive group to give in. So if the person converts then they can kind of defend..you know.

Also, unfortunately, Hinduism does not guarantee a place in heaven if you convert or kill a person from another religion. So not much of an incentive.
