O Bharath Priya first you hoist tricolor flag in RSS office then you can talk about Bharath Matha Ki
Barking dog never bites n it proved barking for certain period.
Israel backed training will not work in India. Even though they kill their own leading person for the benefit. Major peace loving Indians around the globe know what is rss n what is their trend. They never come in front line they use sword & gun with the help of innocent third person. They always use third innocent persons shoulder and hand to spread communal clash.This moochkanda is the example to all public.
Dear all never trust or believe his foolish statements.

First host Indian flag at all Rss units all over india, then ask others to chant Bharath......Jai. Don't try to fool educated younger generation.Keep your advice upto modi and team.Can you please replace full pant with half pant for your cadre, its too old fashion.
