Deities’ damaged Idol in Mapusa, Goa

Mapusa (Goa): A series of despicable incidents of damaging of objects worshipped by Hindus has been going on in Goa.  Yesterday, a similar incident took place at Dashashira where Rakhandev Rashtroli Barasakhaleshwar Devashthan’s dome was damaged. (Incidents of idol breaking are occurring in Goa on a regular basis. The Congress Government will, however, not do anything as it cares little for the problems faced by Hindus. Even those, who beg for votes in the name of ‘Hindutva’, are not likely to do anything in such matters. Hindus must realize this truth and unite to protect their places of worship on their own! – Editor SP)

The idol-breakers have damaged the dome with some sort of instrument. The incident occurred at midnight. Today, a passerby first noticed the damage in the morning; then people staying in the area gathered there. The police have since been informed and a complaint has also been lodged. Police Inspector, Ramesh Gaokar from Hanjun Police Station visited the place and did ‘panchanama’.
