Date: 20.10.2006 To, Attn. Mr.R. Sukumar, Dear Sirs, Sub : Denigration of Lord Krishna etc. & Hurting Religious Feelings of Hindus. This refers to our today's telephonic discussions during which I had informed you that we have observed lot of crackers in Mumbai which are made by your Company and carrying pictures of deities. This is hurting feelings of Hindus and is an offence as per Article no. 295 A & 298 of Constitution of India. Accordingly we have taken up the matter with Police Department. We had also sent appeals to All India Federation of Fireworks Associations, The Tamilnadu Fireworks and Amorces Manufaturers Association Sivkashi. They have agreed to stop this malparactice of denigration of Deities. This matter has been published in Mumbai local newspapers and protest campaign has been launched on our website www.hindujagruti.org for which lot of proud Hindus have send protests. For your information during Diwali we perform worship of Sree Lakshmi ,Shrikrishna etc. At the same time crackers like the Lakshmi-bar, Krushna-bar, Vishnu-bar are burst. When these crackers are burst, pictures of deities are also torn to pieces. . The pieces of the pictures of our deities and great men thus fall scattered on the road. They are trampled upon by people, by the vehicles and thrown in the dirt and gutter. This is a rank denigration of our most revered deities. Unfortunately Sri Krishna Fireworks Factory (P) Ltd. has
printed pictures of Lord Krishna, Lord Hanuman and Sree Laxmi on fire
crackers and boxes. Thus you are the source and main cause of hurting
feelings of Hindus. Yours truly, CC: All India Federation Of Fireworks
Association, Sivkashi. Fax No: 04562-429850 |
