“If a Sanātani wants to travel to another district to offer prayers and celebrate Ganesha Mahotsava, why should the answer be a restriction on the devotee? Our festivals are not a threat to law and order. If there is a fear that someone will create communal tension, stop those who intend to create trouble. Do not stop the devotees who are peacefully celebrating their God. The duty of the State is to protect the festival, protect the devotees and maintain peace – not stop the celebration and call that law and order. I am a Sanātani. I will celebrate my Dharma peacefully”
