Vijayapura, Nov 11: In a major embarrassment for the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, one of its veteran activists has said that the hardline Hindutva outfit has lost its credibility by involving in all sorts of financial and moral corruption.

Addressing presspersons here on Wednesday, N. Hanume Gowda, who has been with the RSS for the last three decades, said that several leaders of the sangh have gone astray of the fundamental values of the RSS.

“Today, not only the RSS leaders but also the BJP men who have come from the RSS are involved in corruption, nepotism and dynastic politics. The BJP’s allegations against the Congress now apply to the RSS and BJP leaders themselves,” he said.

He said that the BJP accuses the Congress of practising dynastic politics. But the BJP is doing same as in the case of B.S. Yeddyurappa’s son, Murgesh Nirani’s brother, Jagdish Shettar’s brother and also the sons of several BJP leaders who are in politics.

Stating that BJP leaders such as Mr. Yeddyurappa, Mr. Shettar, Shobha Karandlaje, Anant Kumar have embezzled money, Mr. Hanume Gowda asked where such huge amount of money has come from as these people were not this rich a few decades ago.

Accusing the RSS and BJP leaders of being involved in land grabbing, he said that he faced a threat to his life when he complained about it to the government.

To a question, he said that there were countless people in the RSS who are unhappy with the functioning of the sangh and they would soon be quitting it.

He said that instead of supporting the fake Hindutva organisation such as the RSS he has now decided to extend his support to the Shiv Sena.

“I am campaigning against the BJP and supporting the Shiv Sena in the elections,” he said.

Sangayya Hiremath, party candidate in Babaleshwar constituency, was present.

Remember social media memes of Chinese companies exporting #BoycottChina hats and t-shirts to India? This time India’s sensational and saffronite TV anchor Arnab Goswami vindicated those memes by hosting an anti-China debate show which was sponsored by Chinese companies!

While the last night's debate was all about boycotting Chinese products in the wake of massacre of over 20 Indian soldiers by their Chinese counterparts in eastern Ladakh, the show was brazenly promoting Chinese products through advertisement placements. 

During the debate, amongst the flashy headlines, there were two brand sponsorships that appeared: VIVO and Xiaomi. Both companies are giant Chinese multinational corporations. 

Twitter user Nirmala Tai, who was among those who spotted this irony, highlighted two instances during the debate where the logo of one of the brands popped up, and one where Xiaomi was found promoting the Mi 10. 

Many Twitterati used Goswami’s some of the favourite words such as ‘hypocrite’ and ‘anti-national’ to target him. They hit out at his channel for accepting sponsorship deals from Chinese brands at a time when anti-China sentiment is strong in the country.
