Right-wing organisations are holding a five-day conference at Ramnathi, Goa [ Images ] -- headquarters of the Sanatan Sanstha -- from June 10 to 14 to draw up a timetable for the 'formation of a Hindu nation and protection of Hindutva and Hindu organisations'.
Sanatan Sanstha had hit headlines in October 2009 for its links with Malegaon blast accused Sadhvi Pragya [ Images ] Singh Thakur, after the death of two people in a scooter bomb blast at Margao on the eve of Diwali [ Images ].
The conference at Ramnathi is being organised by its sister organisation, the Hindu Janjagruti Samiti.
According to the organisers, the conference will also draw up a programme for religious education for Hindus up to the village level.
"India [ Images ] was divided on religious grounds. Pakistan became an Islamic nation but India was declared a secular country despite the fact that Hindustan, as it was known, was a Hindu nation for centuries. How can India be secular despite Hindus constituting 85 per cent of its population," said Suresh Munjal, a Delhi-based lawyer and an organiser of the conference.
According to Munjal, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh leader K Govindacharya and other right-wing leaders will hold a press conference in Delhi [ Images ] on Thursday about the conference.
