Vishva Hindu Parishad all set to celebrate Foundation Day
Joint General Secretary of Vishva Hindu Parishad, Surinder Jain said to ANI, "Broadly, we will cover three agendas. Firstly, we will create awareness about Coronavirus and will help people in need. Secondly, we will celebrate Raksha Bandhan and Janmashtami and spread awareness about VHP. Thirdly, we will spread awareness about Ram Mandir, its importance, culture, traditions, etc." On the foundation day, the organization is looking forward to further expanding its horizon to different parts of India. He said, "The VHP workers will go to the people of every state, district, village to spread awareness about agendas. Also, it will help the country to control the pandemic situation.”
Earlier in the day, Surinder Jain demanded a central law for 'love jihad' and to free Hindu temples from government control. He has asked Union Home Minister Amit Shah to discuss the issues over a meeting.
Surendra Jain told ANI, "We have written to Amit Shah for a meeting. We will talk about two issues. The first is to free Hindu temples from Government control. This was malpractice by the Britishers. Mughals used to demolish Hindu temples and Britishers used to control Hindu temples that received heavy donations. After that, even the government of free India continued this malpractice. We want this to end".
He further added, "Second, we want there should be strong, central law for illegal religious conversion that is love jihad"
