भारतीय इतिहास के ६ स्वर्णिम पृष्ठ (वीर सावरकर - विदेशी आक्रान्ताओं पर विजय गाथा)

To defeat this ignoble attempt to alienate Nepali Hindus from Sanghatan and open the eyes of those simple-minded Nepali Hindus who fell a victim to it, required that some prominent Nepali Hindus should come forward, publicly participate in the session of the Hindu Sabhas and respond to the cause of Hindu Sanghatan in no uncertain terms. With this end in view, the leaders of the Bombay Hindu Conference acting on a request submitting to them through a resolution passed by the Ratnagiri Hindu Sabha, sent a special invitation to our Nepali brothers in Calcutta, requesting them to send some prominent gentleman who could grace the assembly by his presence and acquaint us with feelings of our Nepali brothers to some extent or the other as regards the Sanghatan movement. They were fortunate in securing a man of Mr. Agamgiri’s standing, who had been one of the moving spirits in organising the Gurkha Sanghatan Society in Calcutta, and who wrote in the Krishna-Sandesh, a leading weekly in Calcutta, every now and then exhorting our Nepal friends to participate in the pan-Hindu movement. His speech in the conference was the most effective rejoinder that could be given to those who hoped to alienate Nepal from the Sanghatan Movement. In the very opening sentence, the Nepali gentleman emphatically declared that the Gurkhas and the Nepalis look upon Bharatwarsh as their fatherland and their Holy land. Nepal is and will ever continue to be an inalienable part of Bharatwarsh, of Hindusthan. Whatever, he said, affected the fortunes of Hindus outside Nepal must affect her too. Socially, culturally, religiously, communally in all aspects of life and in all questions that relate to Hindudom and Hindu Society as a whole, it was impossible to think of Nepal apart from Bharatwarsh. As a Nepali, he movingly assured the assembly that the deepest sympathy was being felt with the Hindu sufferers who had been subjected to wanton attacks and humiliation and declared that Nepal would not only remain unaffected but would stand shoulder-to-shoulder with her Hindu brothers all over India in defence of Hindu culture, Hindu religion, the Hindu temple and the honour of Hindu race, whenever and by whomsoever they be attacked. The reception that was accorded to him when he rose and the way his speech was received by the assembly must have proved to all, who have sense to understand and honesty to acknowledge, that Nepal is sure to fall in rank before long and boldly respond the cause of Hindu Sanghatan. On points of civil, communal, cultural, religious and racial interests, we Hindus all, whether Punjabis or Pahadis, Marathas or Madrasis, Nayars or Nepalis
