Cut pasting comment from Nishka on Offstumped "Lay off Mangalore" entry
---------------------------------------------------------
Read about the catholic sabha which was formed to encourage Indian Ctaholics to get into politics. It was formed to protest anti conversion laws of 1979
http://konkanicatholics.blogspot.com/2007/...-mangalore.html
was one of the founders of (Mangalore dioceseâs) Catholic Sabha, which has completed some three decades. It was started to protest an anti-conversion bill introduced in parliament in 1979. Later, it became one of the strongest Catholic lay movements. It has provided a platform for many Catholics to enter politics. It has helped many youths to get into civil service, encouraged Catholics to contest panchayat elections and get involved in other social-service activities. We now manage a special school and rehabilitation center for mentally retarded children. Though I am more active in national politics, I have never ignored the Catholic Sabha, my first step in politics.

Nishka has also said the when she migrated to India from Pakistan, RSS was the only org that helped her, and she says she will always help RSS.
