Tributes offered by Adv Vishnu Shankar Jain to Paratpar Guru Dr Athavale
1. Sanatan Sanstha and Hindu Janajagruti Samiti are the only ones who have proclaimed the establishment of Hindu Rashtra ! – Advocate Vishnu Shankar Jain
When I joined forces with Sanatan Sanstha, I had the feeling that we have finally come under our mother’s wings. Here we were given the opportunity to express our feelings. Sanatan Sanstha and Hindu Janajagruti Samiti are the only organizations who have proclaimed the establishment of Hindu Rashtra. My father (H.H. Advocate Hari Shankar Jain) and I were attracted to these organizations because of their goal of establishing Hindu Rashtra.
2. Our success is due to the Grace of
Paratpar Guru Dr Athavale! – Advocate Vishnu Shankar Jain
My father and I firmly believe that the success and fame we have received is due to the blessings of Paratpar Guru Dr Athavale. Our work progressed smoothly due to Gurudev’s spiritual practice and penance. The success we have got so far in the Kashi Vishwanath temple case is also the success of Sanatan Sanstha, Paratpar Guru Dr Athavale and all devout Hindu organizations.
3. Will not back down from the trial even if we have
to give up our lives for it! – Advocate Vishnu Shankar Jain
It was rumored that out of 5 petitioners in the Kashi Vishwanath temple case, I had withdrawn. Fake news was spread. I will not back down from this case, even if I die.
4. The day is not far when Hindus will be able to offer collective worship
at the Kashi Vishwanath Temple! – Advocate Vishnu Shankar Jain, Supreme Court
Ramnathi – After all water from the wudu pond of Gyanvapi Masjid was drained for three days in a row, a magnificent Shivling was found in there (wudu pond – a place to wash hands and feet before offering namaz). As soon as I laid my eyes on the magnificent Shivling, I decided that I would not allow any more insults to be heaped on Hindu Deities. The court also allowed for the premises where the Shivling was found to be sealed. The Muslims went to the Supreme Court against this, where the decision was upheld. The day is not far away when Hindus will be able to collectively offer worship at the Kashi Vishwanath Temple, asserted Advocate Vishnu Shankar Jain, spokesperson of Hindu Front for Justice and Supreme Court Lawyer. He was speaking at the inaugural session of the 10th Akhil Bharatiya Hindu Rashtra Adhiveshan on the dreadful ‘Places of Worship Act’ and ‘Kashi-Mathura Liberation Movement’. Advocate H.H. Hari Shankar Jain of the Supreme Court, Advocate Amrutesh N.P. And Mr. M. Nageshwar Rao were present on the dais.
Advocate Vishnu Shankar Jain said,
1. The voice of Hindus was suppressed through the ‘Places of Worship Act’. Due to this law enacted by the then Prime Minister Narasimha Rao in the year 1991, it was decided to maintain status quo in the religious places as they were before 15th August 1947.
2. Under this Act, the status of a religious place cannot be challenged in court. However, the Ayodhya Shri Ram Mandir issue was admitted by the court. This was possible due to awakening in and unity of Hindus .
3. If the case of Shri Ram Mandir can be admitted in the court, then why can’t the case of 40,000 temples converted into mosques by the Mughals be admitted? Hindus need to raise their voice for this.
4. We are also fighting against this law in a legal way. If the status of a religious place is to be maintained as it was on 15th August, 1947 as per Sec 4 of this Act, then it is necessary to first ascertain what the status was as on that date.
5. Merely placing an idol inside a mosque does not make it a temple, similarly, the religious nature of the temple does not change if namaz is offered there. According to Hindu law, the property of a temple belongs to the Deity in that temple. According to this law, all the property of the temple remains with the Deity till the end.
6. On one hand, the Wakf Act empowers the Wakf Board to lay claim on any land, while on the other, the Places of Worship Act offers protection to the Islamic places of worship which were formerly temples. If we compare these two laws, we will see how Hindus are being oppressed under the guise of secularism.
7. My father H.H. (Advocate) Hari Shankar Jain and I have challenged this law in the Supreme Court. This law has snatched away the rights of Hindus to approach the Courts when it comes to Temples. This black law should be repealed by the central government. The Akhil Bharatiya Hindu Rashtra Adhiveshan will play a major role in this. Till this happens, Hindus face an uphill task.
