Pramod Mutalik Rubbishes Pink Chaddi Campaign


Pramod Mutalik rubbishes pink chaddi campaign
Times of India 
 

HUBLI, Feb 11: Rashtriya Hindu Sene (RHS) founder president Pramod Mutalik has rubbished the pink chaddi campaign of Consortium of Pub-Going, Loose 
and Forward Women as "a base tactic to shy away from the core issue of Indian culture".

Reacting to their desperate move to gift pink chaddies to RHS' front organization Sri Rama Sene, which spearheaded the attack on girls at a Mangalore pub last month, Mutalik said he was game for an ideological debate with the promoters of the blog.

Speaking to TOI from Miraj in Maharashtra on Tuesday, Mutalik said the move reflected the desperate mindset of these women. "Since they are women, stooping to the level of gifting undergarments will defame them only," he observed.

"Instead of talking at such base levels on the issue of Indian culture that I have raised, it will be better to debate it at the ideological level. I am prepared for that. Let there be a discussion on it across the table," Mutalik said.

He said RHS has no plans for contesting the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections. The candidates fielded by RHS in several north Karnataka constituencies during the last assembly elections could no even save their security deposits.

A former South India convener of Bajrang Dal, a front organization of RSS, Mutalik had parted ways with the saffron outfit to launch the state unit of the Shiv Sena. But on differences over Marathi-speaking areas of Belgaum, he disbanded the party unit and floated RHS.

    Why some people have mistakenly undersood muthalik's statement.The true lovers will only come to light,those who want love as a chat and can change as per their taste are to be worried!!!I don't know why media and people are making it an international issue when so many issues are pending like 'kasab's(PAK TERRORIST) enquiry still under progress.  The incident almost nearing 3 months.India is a country of 1 billion population in which many have no 'chaddis' whisst people are gossipping about  'pink chaddis'.

    Mr.Nayak n Bharath dont think of changing the world as Muthalik 1st change yourself. A girl or a boy going to pub or anywhre outside to roam is his or her choice. If he or she is misbehaving in public then any common public has the right to offend it.

    But entering into a pub dragging n thrashing gals is totally wrong its their wish and money ,if somethng goes wrong they have their parents to look after them. The statement given by Renuka chodhry  all women will surely agree with it coz we women have our freedom who is this ram sena to interfere in personal choice?

    Just keep yourselves in the place of their family members and think if that girl was your own sister then am sure youu would react in this way or more worse than this...and during that moment no one thinks of indian culture but the future of a girls life.

    Mr Deep Stop copying western culture without knowing Head and Tail. Being an Indian we should follow and protect our Indian culture, ethics, values, principles and not the western Culture. Youth are spoiling their valuable time in Love....simply waste of time. It's better to utilise their valuable time in studies, reading, social work, public relations, etc.

    Instead of roaming simply, couples should be getting married. In the name of love, youth are spoiling the family image and parent’s maryada too. Brave lovers are the ones, who love and marry, and they don't go to these Pubs hiding their face and doing all illegal activities. All filmy affects and effects too.

    Mr Bharath, Mangalore.... In my opinion none of the parents will agree with the pub culture by the young ones!!!! In the same way none of them agree with the way Muthaliks handled the situation !!!! Muthalik goondas are not the custodians of our OR your culture !!! Muthalik who was thrown out of many political parties cant be a leader teaching indian culture at the end of his life !!!

    Bharath, Physically attacking girls in a pub itself is first of its kind in India. Therefore, media ran out of control but not necessarily mean for minting money. In every sphere, western culture is assimilated in to ours and some time vise versa is nothing but a part of society of evolution. We can’t blame it. Being aware of its evilness Govt. should have restricted its entry and time into the pub. Nobody supports young minds get drunk especially in the afternoon being known its aftermath effects. It is a social problem where the sociologists have to play a critical role to enact their suggestions by the government.

    Public trashing by goons is not the solution but but insulted and wounded the civilization. We can not blame the protestors for their spontaneous reaction - ‘Pub Bharo’ and ‘Pink Chaddi’ is only a symbolical protest as a open punishment for the Head of Rama Sena and its party. It will stop there after 14th Feb. Government, college workshops, social workers, parents, all religious priests and we likeminded people have to play active role against transmitting this culture to the next generation.

None of these are a part of our culture... we need to protect culture at the same time we need to embrace change and not embaress yourself.. You are thinking at a base level.. Think from a responsible citzen stand point and see the impact on the market.. No company would like to set their foot here after such misery.. WAKE UP MR.NAYAK....!!!

Tell Muthalik that Your idea of gifting Him the Chaddis is as good as His idea of getting married couples by force. Practice self defence and be ready in case if the threat does materialize.

    He is not fit to live in this modern developed world. just go away to some forest and make japa there, and please don't come back to this civilization. Jai hind.

    I am surprised at some people's knowledge about an Pub. Pub is a place where soft-drinks,juices, alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks like Cocktails (mostly mixed with alcohol and fruit juices) and Mocktails (mixed with fruit juices with various other ingredients) are being served to its customers. Some of the Mocktails which are non-alcoholic beverages are costing even upto Rs.500 - 700 per one glass of drink (as per the star category of the hotels).

    However, depending upon the license of the establishments, the Pub had its reservations to serve only Beer or Beer plus all other alcoholic liquor and liqueers/ night caps, coffees (varities) as well. In any country where Pubs are being operated only adults who are over the age of 18 yrs can enter the pub (Men and Women). The safety of the customers who come to the Pub is also the prime duty of the owners of the establishment.

    Many of the Mocktails which are served in the Pub are consumed mostly by the ladies or women folk only. Also depending upon the license of the Pub it can arrange to have floor dances or discotheques. If the license is not obtained for dancing then only the Pub is used to serve strictly beverages (alcoholic and non-alcoholic only). Wherever there is dancing license mostly the owners keep some Bouncers to throw the unwanted elements out of the Pub.

    The anti-social elements need to be given a lot of training before they beat any adults (male or females) and all of them need to be rehabilitated first before they take law onto their hands.

    I want to ask an open question to Mr. Pramod Mutaliq that you are around 60 years of age now or above. As you are well known where we were and where we are? Are you talking about the Stone Age or pushing others to Stone Age? Had you not been indulged in and committed immoral activities during your young days? A seer Vishwamitr succumbed to enticing of Menaka. Are you thinking greater than him? If you have committed such immoral activities you and your servants have no right to speak about others.

    Hitler tried his best to eliminate Jews ultimately failed and he and his experience has died. The younger generations are still experimenting to eliminate or finish off each other. Nobody can finish off or eliminate Christians, Hindus, Muslims, and Buddhists except God alone. Becoming humble, gentle, truthful and living a righteous way of life will save yours as well as everybody’s life and soul. Surrender unto Him and save yourselves.

    What is the use a man conquerors the nation but loses his own soul. Nobody can change another mans/women’s life or culture unless he experiences in his life. Therefore I advise you to renounce violence repent and revive yourselves and stay on a righteous track

    Madhav Nayak Maam, What have you done to protect our culture. By agreeing with Rama sene goondas tactics youi agree with their taliban style of operations. Well what we have done is not only protecting our culture (which was abused when women (Imagine your daughter or mother or wife or sister) were molested and beaten up and kidnapped and harassed for hours in secluded places, but protecting our country , by sending PINK CHADDIS to this sick man. Now i want to join the youngsters in sending my Chaddis to him. When your goondas do it, its to uplift culture, by the way thats what the talibanis also say " WE WANT TO UPLIFT OUR CULTURE" . The only difference between the Ram Sene Terrorist and Talibanis is that Guns are illegal in INDIA, JAAGO MADHAV MAAM JAAGO TO Daijiworld Team: You guys are doing a great job we the public of India especially from Mangalore are with you. Please stay truthful allways, God Bless.

    Pramod Mutalik & his 'goons' are nothing but a disgrace to India and an obstacle to all who believe in 'live and let live'. We Indians are ashamed to call them our countrymen. Their threats are but a clear indication of a serious problem with their own identity (since they have none)and their so called 'way of life'. It is time for the goverment to intervene and make each of them pay for their crimes. We have to get rid of such criminals who create menace in our society.

    Pramod Mutalik is dreaming of emulating Shiv Sena Chief Bal Thackray,which will probably disappear like a dream in no time. The best way to get this man out of circulation would be media should totally stop reporting his comments. No undue publicity should be given by any source including the TV channels.

    I am in no way defending this guy.. what they have done is wrong. But give them credit for their intention at least of trying to protect Indian Culture. What have you done to protect it? Just to put in perspective, if a girl was being raped in the same bar (which has happened in the past and would happen if we do not protect them), do you expect anyone to be quiet? Perhaps the men accompanying the girls would have raped them some day if this did not happen.

    While all are against beating women and it is fine to voice our concern, dont make it an issue against their intentions. You guys are reacting as if they have raped those girls.. come on... just think for yourselves for one minute leaving aside your religion.. Jai Hind

    I think kannadigas are ready to familiarize you guys with indian traditions. In Indian Tradition broom stick is used to drive out evil, may be soon you guys will face it from every Indian housewife, man & child.
