Protest Letter by Hindu Janajagruti Samiti

Dear Sir,

Hindu Janajagruti Samiti is an NGO engaged in Nation building, educating people about Dharma & Dharmacharan, awakening & uniting Hindus.

It is understood that  M. F. Hussein’s paintings are being auctioned online by you i.e.

Asta Guru
FGP Centre, Commercial Union House,
3rd Floor, 9, Wallace Street,
Fort, Mumbai – 400 001,
India.

We would like to bring to your notice that MF Husain is no longer an Indian national but an absconding criminal who has hurt the Religious and National sentiments of crores of Hindus and Indians because of his blasphemous painting of Hindu deities and naked Bharat Mata.

More than 1,250 police complaints have been lodged against him and lot of court cases are going on against him throughout India. He has been accused of outraging religious sentiments, promoting enmity between different religious groups, selling obscene material and disturbing National integrity, thereby committing offences under several sections of the Indian Penal Code. He has also been accused of committing offenses under section 2 of the prevention of Insults to National Honour Act.

Further please note that the Mumbai Police Special Branch is investigating the matter and appropriate action would be taken against M. F. Hussein in due course. The proposed Roopdhar award 2006, Raja Ravi Varma Award, auction of his Rs 6 crores painting by Khushi Foundation at the Turf Club and others have been cancelled and his paintings from various exhibitions were  removed due to large number of protests throughout India.

We request you to immediately stop online exhibition and sale of Hussein’s paintings.

1. Lot no.10 – Pandharpur ki Aurat
2. Lot no.15 – untitled
3. Lot no.16 – Shiv, Parvati, Ganesh
4. Lot no.40 – untilted
5. Lot no.48 – untilted

Also lot no. 16 by Anjolie Menon – in this painting head of Lord Shiva is missing as if chopped off,this amounts to insult of the deity.

In case you do not co operate we will have no other option but to have a nationwide protest and legal action against your art gallery for promoting such a criminal who has denigrated our motherland and our deities.

Please acknowledge receipt. Please inform us the action being taken in the matter and oblige.

Yours Truly,

S.G.Vatkar,
