I believe the image has been removed from the link..this should be again due to our strong voices heard there !!!! Great!!..we need to maintain this...we should also demand their apologies for the same...no one should dare to hurt our sentiments!!!!...also now I heard that supreme court declared that no action can be taken against M F Hussain.and he is going to return to India...WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS...IF WE ALLOW HIM TO COME TO INDIA..HE WILL CONTINUE HIS ANTI-HINDU PAINTINGS..HAVE WE ARRANGED FOR A CAMPAIGN FOR THE SAME..I know that there was a campaign before..but as of now..regarding the verdict is there any signature or e-mail campaign ??? awaiting reply from you .HJS!!!
