RSS: Connecting Society Beyond Political Criticism

The RSS emphasized its role as a nationwide social organization at a press conference, addressing how it fosters community engagement and societal progress. Despite political criticism, the Sangh claims to connect with all societal sections, including marginalized groups, and calls for a thoughtful debate on historical events like the Emergency.

The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) has refuted political critiques, stating it operates as a social organization devoted to societal progress across India. Speaking at a recent press conference, RSS representatives underscored their grassroots efforts to include all societal sections.

National publicity and media department head Sunil Ambekar highlighted the Sangh's widespread reach, including members from various community backgrounds, dismissing claims of discrimination. He argued that its work on transformative issues draws significant support, reflecting its broad acceptance within society.

Addressing controversies around remarks on the Constitution, Ambekar called for discussions on the historical impacts of the Emergency. He asserted that RSS's pan-India influence extends beyond political debate, prompting a large public segment to engage with and support their initiatives.
