News Don't send children to convent schools, says Goa Minister's wife

[Deepu]

Goa Minister Dipak Dhavalikar's wife Lata has waded into controversy after she asked parents not to send their children to convent schools even as she urged women to desist from aping Western culture, saying it has led to rise in incidents of rape.

Lata, who is a functionary of controversial right wing organization Sanatan Saunstha, was addressing a convention in Margao on Sunday, when she made this statement.

"Hindu men, while leaving from home, should sport a tilak, while women, kumkum. Always celebrate Gudi Padwa as the Hindu New Year and not January 1. Don't send your children to convent school... say 'namaskar' instead of 'hello' when answering a phone call," she said.

I think the person Dipak Dhavalikar always tries to be in limelight & earlier also he made some statement. I think he is from MGP......any way as this statement is made by his wife so it shouldn't be any problem as family members can have their own life.

The Dhavlikar family has long been known to be associated with Sanatan Saunstha. Sudin Dhavlikar's name had come up when a crude bomb explosion happened In Margao a few years ago
