propagation of Hindutva is not bad and illegal. It is to be noted
that Lokmanya Tilak and Swatantryaveer Savarkar both were
lawyers though Tilak never practised law and Swatantryaveer
Savarkar was denied law degree due to his revolutionary work in
England. The work of Lokmanya Tilak and his writings about
Hindu religion, Hindutva, reforms in religion and related topics
paved way to great initiative of religious reforms which became
a movement in due course creatively and actively participated
and contributed by Swatantryaveer Savarkar, Babasaheb
Ambedkar, Vitthal Ramji Shinde etc. Today the movement
of Hindutva pioneered by Lokmanya Tilak has resulted into
Hindu society unifying in the name of and under the banner
of Hindutva resulting in complete awakening of the nation free
from all bondages after seventy-five years of independence.
