Indore, Oct 28: Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat on Friday reasserted that 'Hindustan' is a country of Hindus. However, he added that it does not mean that it doesn't belong to the "others".
"Whose country is Germany?...It's a country of Germans, Britain is a country of Britishers, America is a country of Americans, and in the same way, Hindustan is a country of Hindus. It does not mean that Hindustan is not the country of other people," Bhagwat said while addressing a gathering of college-going RSS volunteers.
Clarifying his statement, he added that the term Hindu covers all those who are the "sons of Bharat Mata, descendants of Indian ancestors and who live in accordance with the Indian culture."
Encouraging people to work towards bringing change in the society, he said the government alone cannot bring development without the help of the society. "No one leader or party can make the country great but it needs a change and we will have to prepare the society for it," he said.
He added that the changes brought by the society itself, it reflects on the government and the system. "The society is the father of the government. The government can serve the society, but it cannot bring changes in the society," he said.
"In ancient times, people used to look to God for development, but in 'Kalyuga' people look to the government... But the fact is, the government can go only as far as the society goes," Bhagwat added.
To make India powerful, prosperous and "vishwa guru", the countrymen will have to rid their hearts of the thought of "discrimination on any grounds", he added.
Udupi, Jan 4: A 37-year-old Udupi district JD(S) spokesperson allegedly committed suicide at his residence here last night, police said on Saturday.

HIndustan is country of Indians!!!. First be Indian. Useless*****
As he quoted Germany is country of German's, Britain is country of Britisher's, America is country of American's
Same way India is country of Indians and not Savarna's, Arya's and sangha parivar's who are real enemies of this country
The name Hindutshan is given by foreigners and credit goes to them by uniting this broken country under one name.
He said correct.
Hindustan word came from river INDUS (Sindhu Nadi).
He also gives examples. It means he agrees clearly Hindustan is by Geographically.
Therefore he makes a mistake, when Hindustan belongs to all Indians then where is the question of
OTHERS AND EXCLUSION
Useless and nonsense comment's. Intention is to omit different but no guts to say. Hindustanis no agree or allow him to stay in this land.
No improvement still with old mend set again from pant to cheddi era.
All to pray to get him good knowledge.
A new topic to keep masses out from real issues... does this matter for the development of our country.
