Mangaluru: Valentine's Day celebration - Bajrang Dal warns district administration


Daijiworld Media Network - Mangaluru

Mangaluru, Feb 12: With less than two days to go for Valentine's Day, right-wing outfit Bajrang Dal has issued a warning against any celebration in the city and cautioned that the district administration would be responsible if there was any trouble.

Bajrang Dal, which has time and again warned lovers against celebration of Valentine's Day on February 14 and many a time been in the news for confronting couples on this day, has issued a press note addressing the district administration this time.

"Bajrang Dal is opposed to the celebration of Valentine's Day in the name of love. The district administration should not give permission to any programme planned in the pretext of celebrating this day. Also, the administration should take action against couples who behave inappropriately in public places," Bajrang Dal urged in the press note that is signed by its district convenor Bhujanga Kulal.

"The district administration would be responsible for the consequences if couples are caught behaving inappropriately in malls, parks and beaches," the outfit warned.

Right-wing outfits like Bajrang Dal and VHP have expressed open opposition to the celebration of Valentine's Day claiming that it was against Indian culture, and that in the name of love, immoral activities take place on this day.

    I want BD/VHP to take care of a road romeo near my house. He is at our gates and trying to sneak in. Our Gauri has already rejected him. But this one does not accept that. From today afternoon onwards he is troubling. The Basava is behind my Gawmata Gauri.

    THIS DAY IS LIKE ANOTHER DAY CELEBRATION DEDICATED TO FOR THE "PURE" LOVE NOT FOR THE "LUST" WHICH IS GIVING DIFFERENT MEANING OF THIS CELEBRATION !!

    SO THE BD IS AGAINST THE "LUST" NOT THE "LOVE"

    Now a days people only think love in one angle.

    What is LOVE ?

    Love is when Mom kisses me and says “mera bachha lakhon me ek hai..”

    Love is when you come back from work and Dad says “arey beta ! aaj bahot der ho gaya hai”

    Love is when your Bhabi says “hey hero ladki dekhi hai tere liye, koi aur pasand ho tou bata dena”

    Love is when your Brother says “Bhai tu tension na ley, main hu na tere saath”

    Love is when you are moodless and your Sister says “ chal bhai kahi ghoom kay aatein hai”

    Love is when your best friend hugs you and says “abbey tera bagair maza nahi aata yaar”


    These are best movement of Love.
    Love is not only having a Boyfriend or Girlfriend.

    Love you all who have been a special part of my life..

    Its Love,
    When a little girl put her energy to give Dad a head massage ..

    Its Love ,
    When wife makes tea for husband and take a sip before him…

    Its love ,
    When a mother gives her son the best piece of cake…

    Its love,
    When your friend holds your hand tightly on a slippery road…

    Its love,
    When your brother messages you and asks did you reach home on time…

    Love is not just a guy holding a girl and going around the city.

    Love is when you send a small message to your friends to make them smile…

    Love is actually a name of CARE.

    It is an insult to the District Authorities that these fringe elements are issuing diktats to citizens under their own nose and these authorities keep quiet which is further emboldens them. Are they too hand in gloves with them? Why the District administration is quiet and bearing with them and does not issue any statements on this matter or they are incapable to handle these fringe elements?

If you so concern do some charity help the needy, attack people who throw garbage on the road.. Instead disturbing someone's privacy..The valentines day is non of your business.

    One thing we should understand is that we can not pass culture and morality as the same . Goes against the definition. Secondly, all this friction that exists in accepting Western cultural is because it's not understood. We act Western,dress Western even talk Western .Education is not the problem here. It's lack of wisdom. Literature can help in understanding.

    It is up to an individual or agreed couple to decide whether they want to celebrate valentine day. However not certainly by BD or VHP Leaders.

    When it comes to celebration before general public, Of course decency need to be maintained and parameters are to be directed and uted by the District Administration Authority without any prejudice.

    As of now, I have some doubts, have not these so called VHP or BD leaders involved in any kind of love affairs till date and are they really as pure as they claim to be. If pages of life are turned around then everyone will come to know their love misadventure. God may only excuse for spreading hatred.

    Let the Love prevail over the hatred in every spectrum of life with literal sense, as the context of love is not only restricted to a decent love affairs between the couple but also extends to the compassion and true respect for other human beings & living creature of the world at large.

    Haa one more point To express our love on 14th February Valentine day is wrong, But what about other days- We can find 1000 for road romeos , can u stop that Dear BD and VHP??. No problem we will celebrate on 12th Feb or 13 /14 or thorough out the year. You guys have problem for 14th Feb, Cheap mentality. That's why our state, specially our D.K district is still stagnant, not moving forward

    That means D.C. should get afraid & pass an order to close all malls, multiplexes, parks, pubs, clubs etc. on Valentine's Day? Likewise, why B.D. does not warn D.C. as not to celebrate a New Year celebration on every year? Because most of B.D. activists are busy in celebrating new year, but not the Valentine's day it seems, what do you say?

    One question- What about celebrating of Mothers Day, Fathers Day, Children's Day, is it against our culture??. We don't required Valentine day to celebrate or express our love. One can express anytime.
