New Delhi: Shri Ram Sene chief Pramod Muthalik on Tuesday apologised for the attack on weekend revellers at a Mangalore pub, saying the way the right-wing group acted "was wrong" but insisted it was done to "save our mothers and daughters."

"The way has been wrong. I apologise for this. The way should not be like that. But it is our right to save our mothers and daughters," he said.

"Pub-culture is not our culture...Media should highlight and show the aim behind our act to the society," he said.

Muthalik denied his affiliation with the BJP and said he was only working for Hindutva.

"I am not connected with the BJP. We are working for Hindutva, to save Hindutva," he told a news channel.
