Jaipur: Tridents were handed over to 1,500 volunteers in Rajasthan’s Deeg distric during a “trishul deeksha” programme organized by the Bajrang Dal on Sunday.
Sources said the ‘trishuls (tridents)’ handed over to the volunteers from Kaman, Sikri, Deeg, Kumher, Nagar Pahari and Khoh were within the stipulated measurement allowed by law.
Vishva Hindu Parishad all-India joint general secretary Surendra Jain was chief guest at the event in Kaman town.
“Kaman is the ‘karmabhoomi’ of Shri Krishna. Just as Shri Krishna killed demons to protect religion, similarly demonic forces are active all around us even today and there is a need to eliminate them,” he said.
