The Sri Ram Sene's women's wing, Durga Sene, thinks their male counterparts were right in beating up women in a Mangalore pub.





Manchaleshwari is also against celebrating Valentine's Day. "All this is Western culture. The Durga Sene will also join the Ram Sene and get lovers married. Our youngsters have forgotten our culture. Our aim is to bring them back to our culture," she said.

She had a problem with the reporter's dress (who was wearing jeans and a knee-length kurta). "You media people have to become a model for the rest. Our next programme will be to teach women in the media to dress in an India way. Jhansi Rani and Kittur Rani Chennamma fought the British with swords and horses. They did not need jeans to feel comfortable. They wore sarees and Indian clothes," she said.

Manchaleshwari is 24 years old and joined the Durga Sena when she was 17. "I was in the 12th standard and Pramodji visited our college. I was inspired by his speeches and wanted to do my bit for the country and my religion. Through the Sena, I try to instill patriotism and respect for our culture in young women," she said.
