Sanatan Sanstha did not organise Gautam Khattar’s programme !

Complaint filed with police against those making defamatory false allegations against Sanatan

Ponda (Goa) – In recent days, deliberate attempts are being made to create religious tension in Goa over statements made by Gautam Khattar in connection with Francis Xavier. Taking advantage of this controversy, certain miscreants are trying to unnecessarily target the Sanatan Sanstha. In reality, the High Court has stated that Sanatan Sanstha is a spiritual organisation, and due to lack of evidence, demands to ban it have also been rejected. Despite this, maligning the organisation out of hatred for Hindu Dharma amounts to contempt of court.

Gautam Khattar’s event was NOT organized by @SanatanSanstha

Spokesperson @1chetanrajhans stated the program was organised by Sanatan Dharma Raksha Samiti, and false claims are being spread to defame Sanatan Sanstha, Hindu Dharma, Saints, and places of faith.

Opposing this anti-national mindset, the Sanatan Sanstha has lodged an official complaint at the Ponda Police Station, demanding that cases be registered immediately and the accused be arrested. This information was given by Sanatan Sanstha spokesperson Chetan Rajhans.

On the pretext of the alleged insult to Francis Xavier, certain individuals are posting content on Facebook and other social media platforms, including videos, to defame Sanatan Sanstha, Hindu Dharma, saints and Hindu places of faith. The official stand of Sanatan Sanstha in this regard is as follows:

1. Several videos and social media posts claim that Gautam Khattar’s programme was organised by Sanatan Sanstha. This claim is false. The programme was organised by the Sanatan Dharma Raksha Samiti. Linking Sanatan Sanstha to this controversy is a deliberate attempt to tarnish its image out of hatred.

2. In the Madgaon blast case, the court acquitted all seekers of the charges.

3. The Union Government itself has submitted an affidavit in court stating that there is no evidence against the organisation. Those who do not accept these judgments effectively show a lack of faith in the Indian Constitution.

Sanatan Sanstha strongly condemns anti-India elements raising ‘Viva Portugal’ slogans !

In a video, slogans such as ‘Viva Goa, Viva Portugal’ were raised, glorifying a pro-Portuguese mindset. This clearly indicates that such elements criticising Sanatan Sanstha are not loyal to Bharat but to foreign powers. Praising Portugal while living in Goa is a grave insult to India’s sovereignty.

If the false and baseless allegations targeting Sanatan Sanstha in the name of Francis Xavier do not stop, the organisation will take strict legal action against such individuals. A complaint has already been filed at Ponda Police Station against Seby Vaz and other accused persons, and immediate action has been demanded against them.
