26th Jan 2009, Karnataka police arrested 17 Shri Rama sena members in connection with attacking a pub & assaulting girls.The founder of the Shri Rama Sena, Pramod Muthalik however justified the actions of the activists while saying that they were trying to protect the women against immoral activities.

Similar attack on 31st jan 2009. Now Pramod Muthalik comes to centre stage justifying their action by stating that this was a spontaneous reaction against those girls who flouted the traditional Indian norms and levels of decency.

Feb 5th 2009, Unfazed by the outrage over its attack on a Mangalore pub, the self-styled moral brigade of the Sri Ram Sena on Thursday threatened to forcibly "marry off" couples dating in public on Valentine's Day. (Thank god!!! There wasnt any Rama Sena Marriage Bureau down here in TVM). Muthalik said that his activists would hold protests at hotels, hostels and colleges where Valentine's Day celebrations are held.

GET MARRIED FREE OF COST
Muthalik announced that he had formed five teams to go around the Bangalore city on Valentine's Day. The team members would have a video camera and also a turmeric stub. If the team member finds anyone dating, they will force them to get married . They will take the couple to the sub-registrar's office and the marriage will be solemnized.

Muthalik doesnt stop here, he termed Valentine's Day as anti-Indian culture. The Shri Ram Sena has also submitted a memorandum to the Bengalore city police commissioner in which they have sought help to ban Valentines Day.

IT'S Time for some action
Pink chaddhi campaign Campaign kicked off on 5 February 2009 to oppose the Sri Ram Sena. Most women in this country have enough curbs on their lives without a whole new franchise cashing in with their bully-boy tactics. Of course, a lot of men have joined the group as well.

Here is what they did as part of Pink Chaddhi campaign.

Action No.1
They planned to send some love to Shri Rama sena. They send them a lots of PINK CHADDIS.

Action No.2
They spread this meassage to maximum people possible, through media, face book & all kinds of sources.

Action No.3

History:

Romeo was in madly in love with Juliet. He did all kinds of stuffs to get her love. Within a few months they became lovers. They lived happily for next one & half years. After that both got separated as they went in different directions to pursue their dreams. Had no contact with each other. Romeo got worried & thought that she had forgotten him & gone forever. After about one year they meet and just like Karan Johar film, a colorful climax.

No guys, its not the end of the story. It was not a colorful climax, just their reunion was a colorful one. Infact interval just started. So lets get back to second half, they continued their love life. Both at different places in the map. Slowly the Romeo starts to feel that this relationship is not gone have a HAPPY ENDING, so why waste the time. He starts acting strange, their relationship starts getting worse. Here comes the entry of Ms.Flirty, the classmate of Romeo. Romeo & Ms.Flirty became very close FRIENDS. The Juliet starts suspecting Romeo. Romeo makes use of this suspicion to get rid of Juliet. But the Juliet's love was true, she never hated him. But she never lost her hope, she tried to persuade him again & again. As the days passed, situation got worsen & Romeo declared that " We are breaking up, you are on your own now, live a happy life". The Juliet was heart broken...

Mission Golden Arrow:
Heart broken Juliet seeks the help of the Romeo's friends Happy-nuts & Rockstar to persuade Romeo & to mend their broken relationship. After a few thinking & calculations Happy-Nuts comes out with a plan. They made all the arrangements & managed to make Romeo believe a lie.

Lie: Happy is going out for lunch with a special person & asks Romeo and Rockstar to accompany him. Romeo thinks Happy-Nuts has found a girl friend & he is going with her. As the Rockstar acted well, Romeo had no room for suspicion.

The V-Day or The D-Day:
After a lots of tension, heart beats & nail bitting. Both Romeo & Juliet see each other eye to eye. Romeo turns to Happy-nuts & Rockstar. His face was really red, reddish eyes & he was really angry with both Happy-Nuts & Rockstar for lying to him. After the second's needle made a few circles & few PJ's from Rockstar, the Romeo comes to stable state. Finally, both Romeo & Juliet starts to talk after a long silence. In the mean time Rockstar & Happynuts were having a nice lunch & were examining the beautiful girls sitting around in the Restaurant. After lunch, when Romeo went to wash, Happynuts & Rockstar enquired Juliet about the current stand of Romeo. She replied with a sigh, no change.

After lunch all proceeded to the Valley of Love, where Juliet's friends & Rockstar tried their best to persuade THE STONE HEARTED Romeo. But no use, finally Juliet returned to her kingdom, with a heavy heart. On the other side, Romeo had no feelings or was he hiding all his feelings???

Mission Status: Failed

Will they unite again??? Lets hope for the best.
Anyways Happy valentine's day to all...

This picture was taken on 1st feb from Sooryakanthi ground, Kannakunhnu, Trivandrum. Rock concert of the budding band of Art of living org, Rock 'N' Soul. If you have a close look at the picture( It is advisable to click the pic to get an enlarge view) you can see some white circles.
These white circles are not any work of photo editing or due to any lighting effects.

This is an extraordinary unnatural phenomenon, even science & technology can give an explanation. Its just a miracle...


"This is a hard world to be ludicrous in, with so many human beings so reluctant to laugh, so incapable of thought, so eager to believe and snarl and hate. So many people wanted to believe me! Say what you will about the sweet miracle of unquestioning faith, I consider a capacity for it terrifying and absolutely vile!"
