Hubballi, Dec 2: A senior leader of Rashtriya Swayamsevaka Sangha has charged that Saint Mother Teresa was indulged in conversion activities under the pretext of service.

Mangesh Bhende, the Akhila Bharateeya Vyavastha Pramukh of RSS also accused her of collecting money in 17 countries by portraying India under a bad light.

Speaking at the inauguration of 'Seva Sangam Karnataka-2017' programme of the Rashtriya Seva Bharati in Hubballi on Friday, he stated that Sister Nirmala who heads the Missionaries of Charity was also a Hindu earlier.

"Many people are proud of Mother Teresa for taking up service initiatives and starting around 500 service centres. But, she projected Indians as poor and illiterate to collect money from foreign countries. She was indulged in conversion activities, promising people that they would attain heavenly abode," Mr Bhende said.

He went on to claim that in the name of charity, Christian Missionaries are trying for conversion, and are trying to spoil the culture of our country.

“The so called service of government employees, politicians and Christian Missionaries are not service in actuality. Service should be selfless, and doing service without expecting anything in return is the essence of our religion,” he added.

This RSS leader has lost his memory power and talking sense.  It will be better to admit him in a mental hospital soon.   Whatever he is alleging is baseless and is attacking on a saint.   He should be booked and punished for attacking on the nobility of a Godly Nun.

Bengaluru, Jan 10: Demanding the setting up of a House Committee to probe the Mangaluru violence, former Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy on Friday released multiple videos of the clashes that broke out during the anti-Citizenship Amendment Act protest that claimed two lives on December 19.

Janata Dal-Secular leader further demanded suspension of Police Commissioner PS Harsha and insisted that House Committee consisting of members of all the parties should be formed to probe into Mangaluru violence and said that magisterial inquiry ordered by the state government cannot be trusted.

"Constitute a House committee and produce the fact. The main culprit is the commissioner of Mangaluru, remove the officer as he is the main culprit. I am going to take this issue on the floor of the House." Kumaraswamy said during a press conference here.

Two people were killed in Mangaluru in the alleged police firing after protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act turned violent.

The Act grants Indian citizenship to refugees from Hindu, Christian, Sikh, Buddhist and Parsi communities fleeing religious persecution from Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh who entered India on or before 31, 2014.
