Mellowed VHP settles for regrets8217;

Condemning the MP government8217;s action in preventing the Goa-Delhi yatra from entering the state, he said the march was aimed only at creating awareness about the past misdeeds of the church.

8220;It is not difficult for us to assemble lakhs of people in Delhi, but it was just meant to be a token protest,8221; he said, while terming the Digvijay Singh government8217;s move as 8220;anti-Hinduand undemocratic.8221;

8220;We urge immediate action to undo the high-handed and unjust action to avoid the hardship and torture to the small group of marchers,8221; he further pointed out.

While SRM activists would put banners across Delhi and stage sit-ins, they would not disturb any functions organised here during the papal visit, Joglekar pointed out. 8220;The banners will welcome the Pope and urge the church to stop conversions and denigrating our gods and scriptures,8221; he said.
