Hindustan Times Chandigarh|December 22, 2024
HIS REMARKS ARE ALSO BEING SEEN AS AN EFFORT TO COUNTER THE PERCEPTION OF THE RSS AS RIGID BODY; SENIOR FUNCTIONARIES
Pradip Kumar Maitra

NAGPUR: Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat's recent remarks in Pune where he spoke about a reconciliation with the past and steering clear of raking new disputes on the existence of temples and mosques showcases the outfit's move towards an inclusive and progressive organisation, senior functionaries said on Saturday.

Bhagwat's statements are also being seen as advocating interfaith harmony in an effort to counter the perception of the RSS as a rigid, hard-line Hindu organisation, said the people cited above.

A senior RSS functionary, who sought anonymity, pointed out that Bhagwat has been consistent with his approach - he urged restraint during the Gyanvapi mosque controversy in Uttar Pradesh, stating there was no need to constantly search for Shivlings or Hindu symbols in mosques, as it only stokes unnecessary tension.
