Yes. There are many, the Dakini Vidya form of witchcraft is widely practiced. Similar to Wicca, it involves invoking the Mother Goddess to draw spiritual strength. Unfortunately, because of a lack of education and literacy and also because of fundamentalist bigotry, witches are still today being persecuted and killed.
Ipsita Roy Chakraverti , a prominent practicing Wiccan and social activist in India, has organized a Wiccan Brigade to document the hundreds of cases of abuse and murders from 2001 to present. With the help of police and Universities across the country,more than 100 people including some fundamentalist missionaries have been charged with various crimes against "witches".
It is worth noting that several websites in India use Exodus 22:18 to advocate religiously based genocide, openly teaching "thou shalt not suffer a witch to live" and that the "wiccan brigade" has been specifically targeted.
The links provided detail some of the efforts to remedy this problem.
