It has been stated in the memorandum that

1. Shri Durgadevi incarnated and fought with oppressive demon Mahishasura for 9 days and slew him. Similarly, in this Kali-Yuga, there is need to destroy various forms of demons manifesting through terrorism, corruption, promiscuity, conversion, love jihad etc during Navratri festival.

2. Hindu Janajagruti Samiti (HJS) has been undertaking drive since past 16 years for creating awareness amongst people towards ideal manner of celebrating festivals and prevention of malpractices.

3. All public festival committees should take care during period of festival by insisting on identity cards; allowing participants to enter only after applying ‘tilak-kumkum’; keeping youth ready for opposing women-molesters; requesting girls to bring some family member with them.

Presently, many wrong practices have entered in public celebration of Navratri festival. Sanctity of the festival has been diminishing due to various wrong practices such as dancing ‘garba’ on tunes of film-songs; consumption of liquor; making indecent gestures while dancing; collecting donations forcibly; gambling in marquees; hideous dancing during taking out processions of Devi etc. Many newspapers have published news about increase in immoral acts and increase in cases of abortion; causing huge harm to nation and Dharma during this period; therefore, action should be taken to keep curb over such acts. Memorandum with such demands was submitted by Hindu Janajagruti Samiti (HJS) on 2nd October 2018 to Dy. District Superintendent of Police Anilsingh Gautam, city police station’s Police Inspector (PI) Vijay R. Rathod and PI D. R. Shukla of Avadhoot wadi police station.

Police administration promised to keep control over such malpractices and had detailed discussions with HJS activists.

Shri. Prashant Solanke, Shri. Kailas Surase, Shri. Dattatreya Fokmare, Shri. Vijay Jadhav of HJS and Shri. Ravi Deshpande of Sanatan Sanstha were present on the occasion.
