Bajrang Dal threatens to disrupt Valentine's Day festivities in West Bengal

Behrampore (WB): After halting a beauty contest and stalling an opening show of Shah Rukh Khan-starrer My Name is Khan, the Bajrang Dal today threatened to disrupt Valentine's Day celebrations.

The right-wing outfit threatened to marry off youths celebrating Valentine's Day in this Silk City and said those who defied their appeal would be handed over to police or to their parents with advise not to repeat it any more.

The saffron brigade will move to vulnerable locations like parks, restaurants and other places, where young boys and girls were likely to date on the occasion, state chief of the outfit Ramakanta Rath told reporters here.

"We will not encourage the celebration of Valentine's Day and the members of the Bajrang Dal will keep a close vigil," he said on the eve of V-Day.

Claiming that celebration of Valentine's Day by unmarried young boys and girls was against the Indian culture, Rath said, "We will oppose this anti-nationalist and alien culture."

Yesterday, Bajrang Bal activists stopped screening of My Name is Khan in Berhampur and Sambalpur. Khan was embroiled in a controversy after he favoured participation of Pakistani cricketers in the Indian Premier League.

I dont know what statement Bajrang dal has issued in India or Hindi but the one i received from their Convenor is quite ok.

They say they are not against the celeberations but they are against indecency and i support Bajrang Dal on this.

 

[Moorkh]

if that is what they say then thier words and actions dont match.

atleast they didnt match for past many years.

it was a given that shiv sena/ bajrang dal hooligans will smash up a few card shops etc and harass young couples on valentines day for the sake of publicity.

and if their qualms are with "indecency" it seems odd that they choose to make such statements before valentine's day. indecency exists in the same quantity all through the year. nothing special about 14th feb. why not make the statement on the new years or other such day.
