A Tamil Nadu-based Hindu outfit today burnt a few Valentine's day greeting cards here, to mark its protest against celebrating the day falling on February 14, in the State.

Eight workers of Hindu Makkal Katchi including its general secretary, Arjun Sampath, brought the greeting cards near the District collectorate and burnt them.

Sampath told reporters that government should not allow Valentine's day celebrations to be held in Hotels and Clubs and public places. Such celebrations promote Western culture in Indian minds,he added.
