Hindus gather to pledge commitment to Dharma, Rashtra and society
Vengurla, Maharashtra – With the objective of creating unity, organisation, and awakening Dharma within Hindu society, a grand ‘Sakal Hindu Sammelan’ was organised by the Sakal Hindu Samaj on the evening of 21 June at the Utsav Mangal Karyalaya in Tulas.

This Sammelan was jointly organised through the initiative of Hindu brothers from the villages of Tulas, Pal, Ansur, Pendur, Matond, Hodawada, and Vajarat. A demonstration of weapons from the era of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj shown during the event created great enthusiasm among the attendees.
Speaking on the occasion, Shri. Ganesh Govind alias Raju Joshiguruji said, “The practice of Hindu Dharma must begin from our own homes. We should conduct ourselves according to the teachings given to us by the saints.”
Veteran Kirtankar Shri. Subodh Marathe and Shri. Amit Naik also provided guidance. The programme was compered by Prof. Sachin Parulkar, while the introductory remarks were delivered by Shri. Nitin Lingoji.

If Hindu Society is united, the Nation will remain more capable and secure – Shri. Satyavijay Naik
On this occasion, Shri. Satyavijay Naik said, “It is the responsibility of every Hindu to preserve our culture, traditions, language, festivals, and religious values. If Hindu society is united, the nation will remain more capable and secure. Our saints have always given the message of unity to society. Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj established Swarajya and protected Dharma, culture, and self-respect. Taking inspiration from his deeds, we too must continue to work for the welfare of society.”
