Dhule (Maharashtra) – More than 10,000 Hindus came out on the street, to protest the desecration of the temple and the Idol of Shriram in Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar area. On 10th June they took out a huge morcha and demonstrated their refutation of the act and also that the offenders will not be able to withstand the power of Hindu Unity.  The  ‘Jan Akrosh Morcha’  organised by the Sakal Hindu Samaj received great response resulting in gathering Hindus in such large numbers to register their protest against the desecration of the temple and Shriram’s Idol. All Hindus should take inspiration from this morcha, that such acts will not be tolerated and countered through united action.

A small video was made to appeal to the Hindus to join the Morcha.

The streets of Dhule became saffron because of the saffron caps, shawls and dress worn by the Hindus and the saffron flags held high by the Hindus. Lovely Idols of Shriram, Sita and Lakshman, decorated with garlands and flowers were carried in the morcha. Hindus held black placards with message that this desecration would not be tolerated.

The Morcha began with Shriram’s aarti. After the Morcha Anup Aggarwal BJP leader announced that on the 14th of June a new Shriram’s Idol will be consecrated and installed. The residents spontaneously  proclaimed a bandh in Dhule.

Editorial Viewpoint

The huge unity shown by the Hindus of Dhule, when their religious sentiments were hurt, is commendable. No one will dare to hurt the Hindu sentiments if the Hindus remain united like this everywhere. Please note that with this kind of unity among Hindus, the Hindu Rashtra will not be far !
