Equality, cooperation must in India; friction will not work: RSS chief

Bengaluru, Jan 11: Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh chief Mohan Bhagwat has now admitted that one cannot achieve anything through friction in a diverse society.

rssSpeaking at the valedictory of Swarnanjali, a national ‘Ghosh’ camp of the RSS here, on Sunday Bhagwat said that it was important to treat everyone as equals and emphasised the importance of coordination and cooperation in a diverse society like India, instead of friction.

Over 3,000 people, including top BJP leaders D?V Sadananda Gowda, Ananth Kumar, B?S Yeddyurappa and former ISRO chairman K. Radhakrishnan participated in the event.

“Since we are a diverse society, you cannot achieve anything through friction. All we need is coordination and cooperation at all levels,” he said.

The uniting factor of India’s diverse society was its culture, he said and called for accepting the diversities. Other countries, which had diverse societies, needed uniformity to ensure unity. But such uniformity was not a mandatory need for uniting Indian society, he noted. “In Indian society, one has become all and all have become one,” he remarked.

He maintained that only Indian values can show the way forward for the country as well as the world. Describing Indian values as “complete and time-tested ones”, he said even the concept of sustainable living had come from Indian culture.

Mr. Bhagwat called upon people to strengthen Indian values and dedicate one hour a day for the welfare of the country.

He claimed that everyone in India was a Hindu as they were part of the unique culture, irrespective of whether they accept it or not.

He is right, One who lived near the indus valley are called Hindu (geographic name). As religion we are divided into Muslim / Christian.

All the top Chiefs of RSS & BJP are Brahamins. Still following that Brahmin superiority system. Now just trying to bluff people by giving a pleasant statement.

Mohan Bhagwat is not a rishi. He is not qualified to decide on how Hinduism should be changed.

Enlightened after Bihar debacle.
He is planning for Ayodhya and giving hint to cooperate. Still he didnot forget to mention that all those living in India are Hindus but he forgot the fact that Aryans came India from Germany and nearby countries.

Actually Allmost all leaders of Sangh parivar knows very well that RSS theories will not last long untill it keeps on their lies..........so sometimes like Mr.Sudarshan who went to Eidgah on morning. if you remember......and some time Advani's in law admitted that the Idols gifted to him was melted and made utensils for his home use !!!!!!!!!!!

so also if one asks RSS about what religion they follow....they will not say HINDU but they say Hindu culture........................its a clear form of ISIS in India...as Hinduism never say to kill an innocent women and rape....

New Delhi, Feb 3: Congress leader BK Hariprasad on Monday condemned BJP MP Anantkumar Hegde's remark on Mahatma Gandhi and termed him as "son" of Nathuram Godse, the assassin of the freedom fighter.

"Only sons of Nathuram Godse can make such comments on Mahatma Gandhi," Hariprasad said.

Hedge had attacked Mahatma Gandhi by calling the freedom struggle led by him a "drama" and also questioned as to how "such people" come to be called 'Mahatma' in India.

"None of these so-called leaders were beaten up by the cops even once. Their independence movement was one big drama. It was staged by these leaders with the approval of the British. It was not a genuine fight. It was an adjustment freedom struggle," he had said.

The Trinamool Congress also lent its support to Congress as its leader Saugata Roy said people like Anant Hegde cause shame to the nation. "We are a supporter of Gandhi and they (BJP) are Nathuram Godse supporters. People of this country should see how BJP MPs are as they insult father of the nation," he added.

BJP leaders too found it difficult to defend Hegde on the controversial remarks.

Senior leader Jagdambika pal was cautious in his defence and said, "The whole world knows about Gandhi and it may be his personal opinion."

Whereas senior BJP leaders avoid commenting on Hegde, Union Minister Ashwani Choubey said that Hegde should not have made the comment and added that Gandhi is a well-respected figure in the nation.

Another BJP MP from Haryana Sanjay Bhatia also tried to shy away from making a direct comment and instead said," Congress did not implement what Gandhi preached. It is Prime Minister Narendra Modi who implemented Gandhi's teachings in letter and spirit."
