India Faced Attacks By Invaders, Still Has Hindu Majority: Mohan Bhagwat

New Delhi, Oct 4: Indian civilisation is the only one that survived the onslaught of foreign invaders and is still a Hindu majority country, RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat said on Wednesday.

Mr Bhagwat was speaking at an event to launch a book on the life of former Congress president and founder of Banaras Hindu University (BHU) Madan Mohan Malviya.

Addressing the gathering, Mr Bhagwat said the Sanatana Dharma is eternal and something which is eternal is Hindutva. It survived despite the onslaught of invaders because of personalities such as Malviya.

India is the only civilisation which survived the onslaught of invaders, whereas in other regions such as Africa and Australia, it totally collapsed. The country is still a Hindu majority, Mr Bhagwat said.

He also asserted that Malviya always maintained relations with the RSS and was not averse to its ideology and said the country still needs such personalities.

Earlier in his three-day lecture series, Mr Bhagwat had said a 'Hindu Rashtra' does not mean it has no place for Muslims as this concept is inclusive of all faiths and religions.

Asserting that the RSS' philosophy is to take everyone along, he had categorically said the organisation works towards universal brotherhood and the cardinal principle of this brotherhood is unity in diversity. This thought comes from our culture, which the world calls Hindutva.

Hindutva is the essence of Indian cultural values and is aimed at fostering brotherhood among people of different faiths and views.

Dear Bhagvatjee,

First of all think deeply,   Dont think howmany left now. Think howmuch you lost and loosing continuosly.

We are not aginst Hindus. We are against your so called illogical thinking of Hindutwa.

 

Why aloways there is fuss. If you want follow whatever you like. Dont talk and imposing on others.

What is Hindutwa Ideology, share it.

 

The world has still 6billion population outside the India. Go and share your ideas there.

But Very honestly, Islam is spreading without any efforts because of its truth,

(please dont look at  Muslims, see what is ISLAM).

 

Dont worry, no selfish intensions. Only sharing the fact.

New Delhi, Jul 30: India's gold demand in 2020 is expected to fall to the lowest level in 26 years with domestic bullion prices hitting a record high and as falling disposable incomes could curtail retail purchases, the World Gold Council (WGC) said on Thursday.

Lower demand by the world's second-biggest bullion consumer could limit a rally in global prices, which hit a record high earlier this month, although it could also reduce India's trade deficit and support the ailing rupee.

"Fast rising gold prices could act as headwinds," said Somasundaram PR, the managing director of WGC's Indian operations.

Local gold futures have jumped 35% so far this year after rising a quarter in 2019.

India's gold consumption in the first half of 2020 plunged 56% on-year to 165.6 tonnes. Meanwhile, the coronavirus-triggered lockdown also slashed demand by 70% in the June quarter to 63.7 tonnes, the lowest in more than a decade, the WGC said in a report published on Thursday.

Millions of Indians have lost their jobs or taken a pay cut after the country imposed a lockdown on its 1.3 billion people to curb the spread of the virus that has infected more than 1.5 million Indians.

Consumption is generally high during the June quarter due to weddings and key festivals such as Akshaya Tritiya, but lockdown restrictions kept shoppers indoors this year.

The weak demand in the first half could drag down India's gold consumption in 2020 to the lowest since 1994, when demand stood at 415 tonnes, Somasundaram said, adding that it is still difficult to provide an estimate for full-year demand as the coronavirus crisis is still unfolding.

"Indian demand has previously jumped as much as 300 tonnes in a quarter. Latent demand could come out in the second half," Somasundaram said.
