Appeal to devout Hindus and patriotic Indians

Paintings drawn by anti-national and anti-Hindu painter M F Husain are going to be auctioned by Asta Guru, an online auction house based in Mumbai on May 14-15, 2013. It should be noted that pervert M F Husain has drawn nude paintings of Bharat Mata and Hindu Deities, but still his followers are going to auction M F Husain's paintings. Now it is duty of all devout Hindus and patriotic Indians to protest lawfully against Asta Guru, so that they should remove M F Husain's paintings from exhibition and they should also render unconditional apology for hurting religious sentiments of Hindus and national sentiments of Indians. Also Hindus and patriots should ensure that Asta Guru will not commit such mistake in future. 

Devout Hindus can register their lawful protests with the concerned authorities through Comments Section.
