The newly elected Secretary General of Vishva Hindu Parishad, Bajrang Lal Bagra said that the representatives from Bharat and abroad discussed many topics in the meeting and resolved that as the grand Temple of Nativity of Shri Ram has, at long last, after five-centuries, been re-built, now, we, with the spread of Ramtva (Holistic, Altruistic and Syncretic Ram Consciousness, refinement, grace and dignity) in the organization, society and the diaspora Hindus, will re-establish a highly cultured and strong society. For this, by the end of this Shashtipurti year of VHP, we will ensure the organizational footprints of our work in about 100,000 (One Lakh) places across the country. We will again ensure a cultured, enlightened, committed, dedicated and safe Hindu society by again invoking the values of Shri Ram in the conscience and consciousness of every person.
He said that subjects such as expansion of Seva work, protection and promotion of our cow progeny, stopping of religious conversions, giving more speed to the Ghar-Wapsi (Home-Coming) work were also discussed in detail in the meeting. The representatives from various countries outside Bharat also presented their action plans to strengthen the liaison, togetherness and coordination among Hindus living in their respective countries and work out proper solutions for their concerns and issues.
He said, while congratulating the Uttarakhand government on implementing the Uniform Civil Code (UCC), the Board of Trustees expressed the hope that the rest of the states of Bharat would also enact their respective strong Uniform Civil Codes, so that discrimination among the countrymen can end and also all children and women can get equal rights.
He also said that we have done a lot of work in terms of social harmony, but a lot more needs to be done. Some states have made strict laws to stop religious conversions, but the Board of Trustees also urged that other states should also go in for similar laws. It was also underlined that as soon as the rules of CAA (Citizenship Amendment Act) come into the public domain and play, our Karyakartas ought to take immediate action to ensure Bharatiya citizenship for Hindu, Jain, Sikh and Buddhist brothers and sisters from Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh, who have taken refuge in Bharat to save themselves from religious persecution and socio-economic traumatisation.
This meeting is organized every 6 months in which the trustees of Vishva Hindu Parishad living all over the world and the members of the Governing Council participate. A total of 371 representatives participated in this Ayodhya meeting.
