पाचगणी येथील हिंदूंच्या धर्मांतराचा प्रयत्न ‘प्रतापगड उत्सव समिती’च्या कार्यकर्त्यांनी उधळला
सातारा, २० मे (वार्ता.) - येथील ‘हॉटेल ग्रेंज’ येथे १२ ते १४ वयोगटातील ४०-५० हिंदु मुला-मुलींना बहाई धर्माचे शिक्षण देऊन त्यांच्या मनावर बहाई धर्म हिंदु धर्मापेक्षा कसा श्रेष्ठ आहे, हे बिंबवण्यात येत होते. प्रतापगड उत्सव समितीच्या कार्यकर्त्यांना निनावी दूरध्वनीद्वारे उपरोक्त माहिती समजली. सकाळी ११.३० वाजता प्रतापगड समितीचे कार्याध्यक्ष श्री. मिलिंद एकबोटे यांच्या नेतृत्वाखाली समितीच्या कार्यकर्त्यांनी शिबिराच्या ठिकाणी जाऊन हा धर्मांतराचा कट उधळून लावला. (हिंदु मुलांच्या धर्मांतराचा कट उधळणार्‍या प्रतापगड उत्सव समितीचे अभिनंदन ! - संपादक)येथे गेले १५ दिवस हे शिबीर चालू होते. शिबिरासाठी न्यू इरा स्कूलमधील शिक्षक नेमण्यात आले होते. या शिक्षकांनी बहाई धर्माला वाहून घेतले आहे. त्यांनी छोट्या-छोट्या गावांत प्रसार करून शिबिरासाठी खोटे बोलून मुलांना गोळा केले. त्यांची व्यवस्था आलिशान हॉटेलमध्ये होत आहे, इंग्रजी शिकवणार, नैतिक मूल्यांचे पाठ शिकवणार आदी आश्वासने मिळाल्याने आणि विविध प्रलोभने दाखवली गेल्याने पालकांनीही विद्यार्थ्यांना शिबिराला पाठवले; मात्र या शिबिरात विद्यार्थ्यांना बहाई धर्माबद्दल शिकवण देण्यात येत आहे, हे प्रतापगड उत्सव समितीच्या कार्यकर्त्याला निनावी दूरध्वनीद्वारे समजले. वाई येथून समितीचे कार्यकर्ते श्री. एकबोटे यांच्या नेतृत्वाखाली पाचगणी येथे गेले. आजूबाजूला चौकशी केल्यानंतर असा प्रकार होत आहे, अशी माहिती कोणीच देत नव्हते. तेथील अनेक संस्था, हॉटेल, दुकानदार बहाई असल्याचे श्री. मिलिंद एकबोटे यांच्या निदर्शनास आले. नंतर त्यांनी थेट शिबिराच्या ठिकाणी धाव घेऊन शिबिर उधळून लावले. तेथील शिक्षकांना प्रश्न विचारण्यात आल्यावर त्यांना हिंदू संस्कृती, राष्ट्र आणि धर्म याबाबत काहीही माहिती नसल्याचे कळले. काही मुलांच्या वह्या पाहिल्यावर त्यांना बहाई धर्म हिंदु धर्मापेक्षा श्रेष्ठ कसा, हे शिकवण्यात येत असल्याचे लक्षात आले. पुढे सर्व शिक्षक आणि विद्यार्थी यांना घेऊन श्री. एकबोटे पोलीस ठाण्यात गेले. तेथे घडलेला सर्व प्रकार पोलिसांना सांगितला. एखाद्याला फसवून, विविध प्रलोभने दाखवून धर्मांतरासाठी प्रेरित करणे, हा कायद्याने गुन्हा आहे, असे श्री. एकबोटे यांनी पोलिसांना सांगितले. प्रसंगाची सर्व माहिती घेऊन पोलिसांनी संबंधित सर्वांवर गुन्हा दाखल केला आहे. पुढील तपास पाचगणी पोलीस ठाण्याचे साहाय्यक पोलीस निरीक्षक राजेंद्र बोकडे करत आहेत. या वेळी उत्सव समितीचे सर्वश्री निखिल जाधव, सोमनाथ देसाई, विशाल मोरे, तेजस चौगुले आणि चारुदत्त दिवेकर उपस्थित होते.

Members of Pratapgad Utsav Samiti foiled activities of (illegal) conversion in Panchgani
Satara : 20 May, 2012
In Hotel Grange 40-50 Hindu children aged 12-14 yrs were being taught the Baha’i religion and its principles. It was being taught to them how Baha’i religion is superior to the Hindu religion and its beliefs were taught to innocent children. Pratapgad Utsav Committee activists came to know of this matter through an anonymous phone call. At 11.30 in the morning the activists under the leadership of Shri. Milind Ekbote went to the place of the Workshop and stopped the conversions. (Bravo to the activists of the Pratapgad Utsav Samiti for preventing the conversion of the Hindu Children –EDITOR)
This Workshop has been going on here for the last 15 days. Teachers of New Era High School had been deputed for this workshop. These teachers have converted to the Baha’i faith. They went to the small villages and gathered children by giving false promises. Their arrangements will be made in a deluxe hotel. English Language will be tought, Moral Education will be imparted and various such tempting expectations were given so the parents sent their ward to this workshop.
But the activists came to know from unnamed telephone call that actually children are being taught only about Baha’i religion in this workshop. Under the leadership of Shri. Ekbote few activists from Vai went to Panchgani.On enquiring nearby no one was ready to give any information that such things were happening there. Shri Ekbote learnt that many institutes, hotels and shop keepers are Baha’i. Later he went to the venue of the workshop and stopped the conversions. On talking to the teachers it was understood that they were not knowing anything about the Hindu culture, beliefs and religion. On seeing books of some children it was clear that they were being taught about Baha’i religion being superior to the Hindu religion. Later Shri. Ekbote took all the teachers and students to the Police Station. The incident was explained to the Police officials. Trapping someone, giving false promises and inciting someone for changing the religion is a crime was emphasized by Shri. Ekbote. Taking stock of the matter Police has lodged a complaint against all of them. Further investigations are being done by the Inspector of the Panchgani Police Station Shri. Rajendra Bokde. On this occasion Shri. Nikhil Jadhav, Somnath Desai, Vishal More, Tejas Chougule and Charudutt Divekar, all activists of the SAMITI were present.
