Don't be surprised if you come across a statue of Nathuram Godse, the killer of
the Mahatma Gandhi, in the temple in your vicinity. After its attempt to install Godse
statues at few identified places in Uttar Pradesh was foiled by the State Police, the
Hindu Mahasabha plans to install them in the premises of temples across India.
The Hindutva outfit is in touch with saints and temple trusts which supervise
hundreds of temples, assured it of their support. At present the outfit is quite
determined but tight upped about how it plans to install statue of Nathuram Godse on
January 30, the day Godse shot dead Mahatma Gandhi. The Hindutva outfit has decided
not to publicise its programmes of the installation of the statue after it felt "too much
media coverage" became an "obstacle" in its work.
After its public announcement to build a temple for Godse in Sitapur district and
install a Godse statue at an identified place in Meerut, the Uttar Pradesh police sealed
the two places. While treating the issue as serious problem for law and order the State
police also plans to invoke section 144 of the IPC at the two places.
As per the revised strategy, the outfit will first install Godse statue across the
country and will then inform the media in order to avoid possible crackdowns by the
Uttar Pradesh government and possible roadblocks posed by the other State
government in the country. UP because According to senior functionaries of the
Hindutva group, they met several group of saints during the recently concluded "Magh
Kumbh mela" in Allahabad. "After we announced about our plans the government
sealed the place. We don't want unnecessary attention. We would rather focus on
competing the job at hand," he told this correspondent.
According to a senior Hindu Mahasabha leader who didn't want to be quoted
because of the sensitivity of the issue, Godse statue might soon be seen within temple
premises across the country -- to start with, in temples in the Hindi speaking States like
Madhya Pradesh 2010.
