THE GOAN NETWORK
CANACONA
The Jagruth Kankonkar Hindu Bandhav on Tuesday pledged their support to Subhash Velingkar, who has been booked on charges of hurting religious sentiments of Goan community by his derogatory statements against ‘Goencho Saib’ St Francis Xavier.
The group submitted a memorandum to the Canacona deputy collector and Canacona police inspector in this matter.
In their memorandum, the Jagruth Kankonkar Hindu Bandhav reportedly stated that there was no intention to hurt anyone's religious sentiments. They also added that there was nothing wrong in Velingkar's demand for a DNA test from a scientific point of view, memorandum states.
The memorandum stated that blocking the highway and inconveniencing the common people, as well as using abusive language against the chief minister was very wrong, and is to be highly condemned.
Hindu Swaraj Sanghtan President Dilkush Shet, Sangh Activist and high school headmaster Jitendra Amshekar, and others were personally present along with some others and had discussion with Canacona PI Harish Raut Desai while submitting this memorandum at Canacona police station.
