Srih. Dnyaneshwa Bhagure spoke during the second session of the pogram. He said, “Today’s worthless democracy is causing harm to people, nation and Dharma. All Government machineries like police administration, judicial system, MLAs, MPs are corrupt. Nothing is done when stones are pelted at soldiers; but the ‘gou-rakshaks’ trying to save cows are treated as offenders. All people should fight against corruption. Help of Hindu Vidhidnya Parishada can be sought for the same.”
Hindus have a history of bravery from ancient times such as Rama slaying Ravana; Shrikrushna slaying Kansa; Shivaji Maharaj slaying Afzal Khan etc but today, Hindu has become spineless like a goat. Fanatic ‘jihadis’ are attacking through 14 various types of ‘jihad’ such as love-jihad, land-jihad, sex-jihad etc. Members from cruel terrorist organization like ISIS are found in this country. Hindus should therefore, leave their spineless life and generate in them, ‘kshatra-vrutti, strength and attitude to win. The above views were expressed by Smt. Vaishali Katkade.
Sanatan’s young seekers then presented demo on self-defence. The program was concluded with recitation of Sri Guru’s ‘shloka’. Many boards were displayed outside the venue with enlightening matter written on them.

4. A Parsee family from Australia, Shyam Hariyali and his wife on visit to India, read about the program in local newspaper and came for ‘Guru-pujan’.

Let us prepare ourselves for fighting against evil tendencies in society and for establishment of Hindu Rashtra on the occasion of Gurupurnima ! – Shri. Dheeraj Raut
Bharat has glorious history from Shriram to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. Congress leaders chose democratic governance and made condition of this country so pathetic. Corruption, crimes, appeasement of minorities, reservations etc is seen by all. Righteous Hindu Rashtra will have to be established for giving an ideal government by preventing decline of this country and by eradication of evil tendencies in society. Let us, on this auspicious occasion of Gurupurnima, commit ourselves to this mission, stated Shri. Dheeraj Raut while addressing Gurupurnima function held at Jain Bhavan on Pathanpura Road. The program was organized by Sanatan and Hindu Janajagruti Samiti.

Anytime we will have to fight against injustice and oppression. There is no alternative to be self-sufficient for protection of society, nation and Dharma. For that, get trained in self-defence and train even others.”

Righteous Hindu Rashtra needs to be established by creating awareness towards unjust governance – Shri. Shrikant Pisolkar, Vidarbha –Coordinaor of HJS
Shri. Pisolkar said while speaking on the topic of fighting against evil tendencies in society and establishment of righteous Hindu Rashtra, “Guru-Disciple tradition has established Dharma whenever it has gone under stupor. Arya Chanakya was successful through the medium of Chandragupta Maurya; Samartha Ramdas swami eliminated 5 powerful Mughal kings through Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. This is ‘Guru-Disciple’ tradition. Today, Dharma is under stupor. Awareness needs to be created towards unjust governance for establishment of righteous Hindu Rashtra. Let us dedicate ourselves towards Guru’s ‘samashti’ mission; only then will we acquire Guru’s grace.”
The program was attended by 350 people.

Valour is needed to face struggle in prevailing conditions ! – Shri. Hemant Khatri
The British passed ‘Indian Arms Act’ to remove weapons from Indians since they were scared of the freedom war; whereas in 1920, Gandhi took away weapons from minds of Hindus. Even today, the rulers have not left any stone unturned to make Indians spineless. It is said in ‘Mahabharata’ that nothing is superior to valour. Our every incarnation has fought battles and removed anti-social elements like Kansa, Chanur etc. Chhatrapati Shivaraya awakened valour amongst mawlas and destroyed regimes of five Mughal kings with bravery. Even today, there is need to awaken valour for the struggle.
