Faithful adherence to Hindu Dharma and culture is necessary to stop love jihad – Sadguru Swati Khadye, Dharmapracharak, Sanatan Sanstha
Belagavi, Karnataka – Due to a lack of pride in Hindu Dharma and a lack of knowledge regarding the greatness of their own culture, young Hindu women are falling victim to love jihad. Love jihad is not just an assault on Hindu women, but a well-planned attack on Hindu Dharma itself. Therefore, to stop this, faithful adherence to Hindu Dharma and culture is extremely necessary. This call was made by Sadguru Swati Khadye, the Dharmapracharak of Sanatan Sanstha.
Over 1,600 Hindus gathered in Belagavi for a special lecture on ‘Love Jihad’.@SanatanSanstha‘s Sadguru Swati Khadye urged Hindu girls to embrace icons like Rani Chennamma & Laxmibai as role models, emphasizing that practicing Hindu culture with devotion is key to stopping it. pic.twitter.com/pH6Q8TN78y
