MP: Shiv Sena Workers Threaten To Break Legs of Couples, If Seen Celebrating Valentine's Day

New Delhi: Shiv Sena workers in Madhya Pradesh have threatened couple with violence if they are found celebrating Valentine's Day on Monday.

These workers worshiped 'lathis' (Sticks) at Kalika Shakti Peeth temple in Bhopal on Sunday.

''If couples are seen celebrating Valentine's Day, we will break their legs,'' workers were quoted as saying by media reports.

They have also geared themselves up for protest against Valentine's Day and asserted that they will initiate action against any couple found together on this day.

Defending their proposed action against couples, they said that Valentine's Day is a festival of western countries so we will oppose it.

In a bid to stop such activities, the workers said that they will keep an eye on different places in the city including parks etc to stop couples from celebrating Valentine's Day.

They also warned pubs, restaurants, hotel operators from organizing any event on Monday.

Meanwhile, following the warning, the police has cautioned them from creating ruckus and said that action will be taken against those who harass people on Valentine's Day.
