Panaji, Apr 4 : After banning the Sri Ram Sene from North Goa District, the Government of Goa has now banned the controversial outfit from the South Goa as well.

"We have issued a notification on Friday. The Sri Ram Sene is banned in South Goa too," South District collector Mihir Vardhan said.

Goa Home Minister Ravi Naik had recommended the ban after its chief Pramod Muthalik, warned that the outfit would attack pubs in the state.

Known as the second headquarters of the Sangh Parivar after Nagpur, the coastal city of Mangalore has nourished several Hindutva fringe groups of which only two have come to prominence, namely the Bajrang Dal and the Sri Rama Sene.

But after the pub attack, the Sene has made a ‘grand entry’ and youth are joining it in hordes.

Many workers from ABVP, Bajrang Dal, Hindu Yuva Sene and other fringe groups are visiting the state conveners of the Sene, Prasad Attavar in Mangalore and Arun Kumar Puthila in Puttur, to impress them.

Mangalore, Feb. 7, : Sri Ram Sena chief Pramod Muthalik on Saturday said false allegations were leveled against the outfit about its involvement in the alleged abduction of Kerala MLA's daughter last night. The daughter of a Kerala CPM MLA C. K. Kunhambu and her male friend were kidnapped and beaten up allegedly by unidentified persons on Friday evening.

Kunhambu has charged the Sri Ram Sena for attacking his daughter.

Muthalik, however, turned down the charge and said, "The allegations were framed to defame our sena. These are false. Let the inquiry take place."

Mangalore, Feb 5 : Pramod Muthalik, the Chief of the Sri Rama Sena, has said that the raid on a Mangalore pub was justified, as it was aimed at protecting youngsters from falling into wrong hands. 

"Our aim is not create violence. We raided a pub, but nobody understands that there is a drug mafia and sex mafia working in the area and lot of females are becoming victims of that. I agree that our way to protest was not right. I will tell my party activists to rather carry their protest in a peaceful manner," said Muthalik.

He said that his forum would submit a memorandum to the State authorities to stop all preparedness for the Valentine''s Day.
