Rashtriya Hindu Andolan held at Jalgaon

Demand through representation by pro-Hindus in Jalgaon

1. File a case on Foujiya Khan of Rashtrawadi Congress and others for burning Manusmruti under Criminal Procedure Code section 295 A for hurting religious sentiments.
2. Take stringent action against those burning any scripture of any religion in any andolan of this kind by passing strict laws in that regard.
3. Inquiry is very necessary of people like Foujiya Khan and others for increasing unnecessary tension on the administration and for disturbing the social fabric.

Jalgaon : With regard to taking action against Foujiya Khan of Rashtrawadi Congress and others for burning purposely the Hindu religious text, Manusmruti and hurting their religious sentiments, representation stating the demand in that respect a representation was given to the District Collector here, Shri. Kishorraje Nimabalkar on 11th August, on behalf of pro-Hindu organisations. Shri. Wandekar accepted it on behalf of the District Collector. Pro-Hindus demanded from police also the same promise by going to the police station. Before that pro-Hindus protested the action by organising an andolan before the Municipality. The andolan commenced with offering worship to the Holy text ‘Manusmruti’. Shri. Sangramsingh Suryavanshi, Shri. Akash Patil and Banti Baviskar worshiped the Text. Many volunteers of Purohit sanghtana were present on the occasion. There were also office bearers of other organisations in large numbers.

Points in the representation

1. After the meeting concerning the campaign of the Rashtrawadi Congress, ‘Save the Constitution, save the nation’, Foujiya Khan and MLA Vidya Chavhan, ex MLA Usha Darade, Surekha Thakre, Sonal Vasekar, Dositrict President of the Rashtrawadi Congress Kalpana Patil, Tilottama Patil and other office bearers burnt the Hindu Religious text Manusmruti in Akashvani Chowk in Jalgaon on 7th August.
2. Why did Foujiya Khan burn the Hindu religious text ? Has he read that text ? Without even studying the Hindus’ religious text, to burn it, shows Faoujiya Khan’s hatred towards Hindus. Therefore now if any Hindu burns any religious text of any other faith then who will be responsible for that ?
3. As Foujiya Khan respects his religious texts, Hindus too respect theirs and she should remember this very well. When the atmosphere in Maharashtra state is already sensitive due to the issue of reservations and at such times to hold an andolan purposely creating religious rift shows that Foujiya Khan is trying to create law and order situation.
