Several other Hindu organizations such as Sanathana Samste, Dharma Shakti Sene, Nyayalayadalli Anyaya Nivarana Samiti, Hindu Yuva Sene, Yuva Shakti, Sri Rama Sene, GSB Mahila Balaga, and Ranaragini supported this protest, which was organized on October 15, Thursday.

The protestors demanded that the government must take immediate steps to save Hindu girls from falling prey to the members of Love Jihad, allegedly a religious fundamentalist organization. Ms. Lakshmi Pai, the leader of Hindu Janajagruti Samithi, said: “Hindu girls are attracted to Muslim religious fundamentalists, who trap them into love affairs and marriages with the purpose of converting them to their religion.”

 She accused the members of Love Jihad of targeting the Hindu community. She claimed that poor Hindu girls are being targeted just for the purpose of religious conversions. She alleged that the members of Love Jihad are active in the vicinities of institutions where Hindu girls work or study. She demanded that the police take immediate steps to stop the activities of Love Jihad.

The protestors held placards in their hands and demanded that the government take immediate steps to redress their grievances.
