Accusing that Christians have persecuted, conducted genocides and mass executions for 350 years in the country, the International Working President of Vishva Hindu Parishad Alok Kumar demanded that when the Pope comes visiting Bharat next, he should apologize for all this.
He also said that the Pope should show respect for all religions and should declare to stop horizontal religious conversions in Bharat. He was speaking at the inaugural session of three-day Board of Trustees meeting of VHP in Janagarh of Gujarat.
Alok Kumar asserted that this century is the Hindu century and VHP works on the guidance of saints. He said that there would be a massive campaign to bring back to their Swadharma, the Hindu brethren whose forefathers had been compelled to become Muslims through force, fraud and allurement a few generations back.
He said that the purpose of this meeting has been fulfilled even simply by the gathering of the Karyakartas after the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns. “We will remember our resolve and bolster our firmness and drive”, he added.
Stating that VHP is turning 60 (in 2024), he said that on this occasion, we will consider enhancing the growth and quality of our work. We will consider boosting up the works of Dharmaprasar (home-coming of converted brethren), Bajrang Dal and Durga Vahini (Youth Wings of VHP).
The VHP, which is also concerned about the Hindu diaspora, he said that it will think of enhancing its international coordination activities. “We will proceed in the direction of working on Dharmaprasar, Dharmacharya, Math-Mandir (Monasteries-Temples), Archak-Purohits (Priests) and Dharmayatras (Pilgrimages)”, he added.
Through the Hitachintak campaign, the VHP chief said that 40-50,00,000 Hitachintaks (well-wishers) will be made. “We will try to bring the spirit of harmony in society. When a tribal converts, he/she leaves behind and lets down all his/her indigenous deities and traditions, so he/she should not get the facilities of reservation – we will try to ensure this” Alok Kumar said.
Not only this, he further added that we will work on a comprehensive plan to protect the environment & ecology. He recalled Hind di Chaadar Guru Tegh Bahadur ji had sacrificed his life for protecting Hindus from Mughal tyranny. Therefore, to propagate his teachings, he said that we will organize programmes and conferences across the country!”
President of Akhil Bharatiya Sadhu Samaj, Ven. Swami Muktanand Ji Maharaj said athat we want our nation to continue to guide the world. The country should progress in science, technology and engineering. There should be environment and ecology-friendly sustainable economic development and affluence of the country.
“Our holistic and altruistic Kulaachaar (culture) should flourish, so that the world gets to enjoy happiness, health and blessedness. We can also lay down our lives for the nation and country in which we were born and brought up. Let there be no dispute in the country – all Hindus are our own flesh and blood, kins, Rishi Santaans!”, he added.
In the inaugural programme of the Trust Board meeting held at the premises of Swami Narayan Suvarna Mukhya Mandir of Junagadh were present Ven. Swami Shri Sadguru Kothari Devnandan Das ji, Ven. Prem Swaroop Pramukh Swami Ji, Ven. Swami Muktanand Ji (President of Akhil Bharatiya Sadhu Samaj), President of VHP Padmashri Dr. RN Singh ji, Secretary General Shri Milind Parande ji, office bearers from Germany, Thailand, Bangladesh, Nepal and other senior officers of VHP.
