sad at the fact that this Valentine’s day culture did not start from India

As Valentine’s Day was being celebrated all over the world there were small groups of narrow minded people protesting against the celebration terming it as an alien culture and culture degradation. The radical groups including Shiv sena, the Bajrang Dal, the Akhil Bhartiya Maratha Mahasangh ans the Students of Islamic Organisations protested against the celebrations in various parts of the country. About 44 activists were arrested for staging protest.

All i want to ask this people is for a land that boasts of having ” The Symbol of LOVE”( Taj Mahal) and which believes is spreading love and peace “is the act of loving and spreading love to your dearest ones an alien culture?” I also want to ask them whether they do not love their wife, parents, children and other dearest ones around them. Valentine’s day is not only meant for people in love but for all the people in the world who love their family and others around them.

I am actually sad at the fact that this Valentine’s day culture did not start from India.
