valentines day

I read the comments posted on this site. I don't understand, why people are bringing religion in between?
Shiv send have lost it....
So they are doing it just for publicity stunt and nothing else.
These politicians have nothing to do ...
There are other major problems in india, why don't they focus their attention there.

And regarding celebrating this day...I don't think there is any harm. We just need a reason to celebrate. Like we celebrate our b'day, our anniversary. Same way we r celebrating valentines day. What's the problem in that ?

Now Mr. Bal thakery is saying it should be named after laila-majnu or heer rajha....
Naam mein kya rakha hai...
We are here to celebrate, take some time from our busy schedule and spend with our loved one. If tomorrow he'll fix a date on laila majun's name, We'll still celebrate yaar...
Why this propoganda?
