1. Who celebrate this day in the name of Love, are real fools. The real love is not confined to any definite day or date.
2. Why only on this day the Bhajrangis are concerned. Everyday the worst is happening. Our own Kannada film industry is also showing the worst sex promoting acts. Why these Bhajis can not at least talk on these films. There is no single film without so called licensed Hero heroins of sex promoters.
3. Even these Bhajis also go and watch such films. Many a time they buy ticket at black market.
It means there are licensed white colored sex promotions and poor people for another standard.
We are not supporting such acts, our question is why this double standard.
Police department is in right direction by getting the written statement (Muchchalige patra) by Bajarangi Kulal. This is the first time Police in action regarding law & order situation in Mangalore after SP Murugan transferred. However, I don't endorse valentine day, and it is upto the individuals.
