Dhirendra Krishna Shastri, speaking on the temple-mosque issue in Mathura, advocated for the recitation of Vande Mataram. He is planning to involve lakhs of devotees in the 'Sanatan Hindu Ekta' foot march from Delhi to Vrindavan.
Mathura: In Mathura, Uttar Pradesh, Baba Bageshwar, Dhirendra Krishna Shastri, has made an important statement regarding temples and mosques. He stated that the recitation of the national song Vande Mataram at religious sites will be mandatory during the 'Sanatan Hindu Ekta Padayatra' (foot march) planned from Delhi to Vrindavan in November. He believes this will clarify who truly loves this country and who does not.
Dhirendra Shastri described this foot march not merely as a religious journey but as an ideological movement. He asserts that invaders are continuously trying to weaken Hindus, but he will not allow this under any circumstances. The aim of this initiative is to unite Hindus and strengthen the culture of the Braj region.

Shastri claimed that the grandeur of this foot march will be unprecedented. It is estimated that lakhs of devotees and patriots will participate.
