TAMILNADU SEVIKAS PERSUADE GIRLS NOT TO TAKE TO WEIRD HAIR STYLES
In Tamilnadu, Rashtra Sevika Samiti's members have been campaigning among Hindu girls not to wear T-shirts, jeans etc. They are dissuading girls from taking to weird hairstyles. This was disclosed by samiti's state general secretary Gomathi Naveen in a press meet at Erode in connection with the centenary of Samiti's former president Saraswati Tai Apte. The press meet was held on December 27, the last day of the three day state level sammelan of the Samiti in which 720 Sevikas from all over the State participated. Gomati insisted that Samiti will not indulge in any agitation to achieve this end. The punctuality and discipline with which the Samiti route march was held, prompted a woman police official on duty to exclaim how great it would be if they (women police) too could receive training in this fashion.
