Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat, during the Dussehra event in Nagpur on Saturday, voiced strong criticism against anti-Hindu and anti-minority forces operating in Bangladesh. He said, “What happened in our neighbouring Bangladesh? It might have some immediate reasons but those who are concerned will discuss it. But, due to that chaos, the tradition of committing atrocities against Hindus was repeated there.”
“For the first time, Hindus united and came on roads for their protection. But, by the time this radical nature of committing atrocities out of anger is there – not only Hindus, but all minorities will be in danger,” Bhagwat added.
Bhagwat said that there is a need for global Hindu support for those affected and urged the Indian government to offer assistance adding, “Being weak is a crime. If we are weak, we are inviting atrocity. Wherever we are, we need to be united and empowered.”
Commenting on the narratives circulating in Bangladesh, Bhagwat said, “In Bangladesh, such discussions are going on that we have a threat from India and hence we have to side with Pakistan since they have a nuclear weapon we can stop India… We all know which countries are pushing such discussions, and narrations, we don’t need to take their name. Their wish is to create such conditions in India as well. Such industries are being run to stop India. Deep state, wokeism, and cultural-marxism are a few words that are in discussion. I have discussed it last year as well. A few people said that these things are not here – but they are for a long time…”
Taking an indirect dig at the Bengal government in the handling of RG Kar rape-murder case, Bhagwat said, “In Kolkata doctor’s rape, some tried to protect criminals; nexus of crime, politics and poisonous culture ruining us.”
