Margashirsha Shuddha Pratipada

‘Hindus are calm inspite of the continuing series of temple desecration incidents in Goa.  The reason for this is their ‘inert’ attitude. They should bear in mind that the idol breakers who are targeting small temples today will tomorrow target big temples and finally Hindus themselves!’

Curchorem (Goa): An idol of Sree Sandelibaba, a Shivaling and a trishul situated near the railway bridge at Curchorem were desecrated at around 2 am past midnight yesterday.

On 24th November, a railway guard, Shri. Barasappa noticed 7-8 men meddling around the shrine; however he intimated the people about this only in the morning. At this time, the idol of Sree Sandelibaba and a Shivaling was found broken into 3 pieces, while the trishul was broken into 2 pieces. The police roped in a dog squad and fingerprint experts to investigate into the matter. The Dy. Sp. (Quepem) Shri. Rohidas Patre, SP (South Goa) Shri. Alan D’sa, Dy. Sp. Shri. Umesh Gaonkar, PI Shri. Nilesh Rane, PI (Quepem) Shri. Santosh Desai and Shri. Mangaldas Desai of the Crime Branch were present on the spot.
