VHP working president Pravin Togadia on Sunday exhorted Hindu families to have “several children” to ensure survival and growth of the religion – a remark which was echoed by a few seers who were attending an event organised by the saffron outfit here.
Besides going a step ahead by urging Hindu couples to produce 8-10 children each as against BJP MP’s Sakshi Maharaj’s call for Hindu women having four kids, Togadia supported Union minister Sadhvi Niranjan Jyoti’s controversial “Ramzade vs Haramzade” remark.
Togadia and other speakers maintained that “ghar wapsi” and “anti-love jihad” campaign would continue, and also dubbed Aamir Khan-starrer PK as a “conspiracy” against Hindus.
Addressing VHP’s Hindu Sammelan, Togadia said there was a competition going on among politicians to give reservations to Muslims and they do not care about Hindu youths. “Now, we will not let population of Hindus decrease to 42 per cent from 82 per cent. Hindus need to increase their population to ensure their safety because system of the country is not able to protect Hindus,” he said and asked the gathering to take pledge to have “several children” in Hindu families for increasing the population of the community and ensure its safety for 1,000 years.
Echoing Togadia’s views, seer Ramanandacharya Raghvachrya said Hindus were facing threat across the world. “Lord Krishna had 16,108 wives and he had 10 children from each of them. The world will be ruled by those who have maximum population. Lord Ram too had asked his brother Bharat to have more sons for protection of the religion,” he said.
“Slogan of ‘hum do, hamare do’ will not work. Each Hindu family should have at least eight children,” said Kanhaiyya Das, a top priest from Ayodhya.
Das also said: “Any Hindu who has faith in lord Ram is a Ramzada and and those who do not have faith in Ram are Haramzadas.” Niranjan Jyoti had earned wrath from several quarters for a similar statement at a public meeting in Delhi a few months ago. “When a Sadhvi made that remark, Opposition parties disrupted business in Parliament,” he said.
