Ponda (Goa) : Biting the bait thrown by the Goa government on Friday, Shri Ram Sena chief Pramod Muthalik on Saturday told STOI that he is all set to start operations in the state by September this year. He reiterated that he would not water down his stance on dealing with the westernization of Indian culture in Goa and said the local unit, when set up, would deal with clubs and parties severely.

In a telephonic interview, Muthalik, speaking from Belgaum, said the Sena’s Belgaum city unit chief Ramakant Konduskar would visit Goa in the first week of August to meet with people, including youngsters, who have extended support to starting a Sena wing here.

Revenue minister Francis D’Souza, replying to a question from opposition leader Pratapsingh Rane in the legislative assembly had said, "Everyone can come (to Goa). How can you stop anyone? No one can be stopped…. read the Constitution of India." He had then added, "Let Muthalik come, we’ll take care of him."

Endorsing D’Souza’s statement, Muthalik said, "As Indians we are free to set up a branch anywhere in India." He elaborated, "The Sena is not an extremist group to ban its entry in any state of its own country. Whatever we’ll do in Goa would be within the framework of law. Being an Indian, I have a fundamental right to move freely in any part of the country. When the president of Pakistan has easy access to India, why can’t I?"

On his interest in this coastal state, Muthalik said, "Since Goa is a popular tourist destination, several dance clubs and high-voltage parties take place to attract foreign tourists. However, these adversely affect Goa’s culture and several desi young girls visit dance clubs in the name of being modern. Goan culture is being westernized."

He admitted that his organization follows an aggressive approach towards dealing with issues. "We believe in Bhagat Singh and Netaji ( Subhash Chandra) Bose and not in (Mahatma) Gandhi. We are aggressive in our approach and that is the only way to protect the country," he said.
