Rahul Gandhi attacked RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat over  his 3-day conclave in Delhi and alleged RSS was out to attack India’s independent instituitons.

New Delhi: Congress president Rahul Gandhi Saturday attacked RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat over his three-day conclave, Future of Bharat: An RSS perspective, that was held in the capital earlier this week.

“Mohan Bhagwat in his earlier speeches had said ‘We are going to organise the nation’. Who are you to organise the nation? The nation will organise itself. In the next couple of months, their fantasy will be smashed,” Rahul Gandhi said at a meeting of professors from educational institutions across the country.

In a two-hour interaction, the Congress president continually alleged that the RSS was out to attack independent institutions and was trying to take over the education system.

“The RSS vision of India, like Amit Shah said, is that of a golden bird. They view it as a product and how it is to be utilised. They decide on who utilises it,” added Rahul.

‘Congress fighting for independent institutions’

Rahul Gandhi said that Congress was fighting to prevent this attempted systematic capture of all the independent institutions such as the judiciary, educational institutions, Election Commission and others.

Rahul Gandhi has in recent months regularly attacked the RSS over ideological issues, particularly claiming that it was out to break the country.

He is also facing a defamation case, filed by an RSS swayamsevak in 2014 in Maharashtra, after he claimed that the RSS had killed Mahatma Gandhi. In June this year, Rahul had made an appearance in the court in the defamation case and refused to apologise for his remarks.

  1. Rahul Gandhi is right. Mohan Bhagwat is the one who has quietly and very cautiously instigated the lynching, killings and mob lynching in the name of cow and has remained himself holy man. RSS has many faces inside and some outside. It uses the name of Vivekanand, Ram Krishna Param Hansdev and so on only to draw the crowd that follows them but has a different agenda to monopolizw power. RSS speak on many national issue but is silent on farmers suicide, unemployment, Modi’s promises of bringing back all the black money outside, publishing the names of all those black money account holders abroad and so on, why? Mahatma Gandhi has of course been killed by RSS instigated ideology that saw Gandhi as a most formidable block to the advance of RSS. It is RSS which sided with British and de facto opposed freedom struggle. Savarkar to them is veer, who was jailed along with Bhagat Singh and Savarkar like a coward man wrote to the British Viceroy that he would of good use to British alive than dead and pleaded for mercy also promised not to indulge in any movement that disturbs British and he was released while Bhagat Singh preferred hanging than to submit to British and Savarkar Photo has been hung in Parliament by BJP GOvt. just alongside Gandhi. Dont believe what I write here go to Wikipedia of RSS on the net and read for yourself. These same anti nationals are now ruling the nation and the media in India is just knelt down before Mohan Bhagwat. It is surprising why Mayavati, Mulayam singh, Mamata Banerjee, Kejriwal, and many others who are in the oppositi0n have no say on RSS?

    • Sir, RSS and it many versions have the ability to live in their world. They can lie in our face and pretend that they are telling the truth. I have never seen such self-serving people in one organisation. Modi was presiding over liquor smuggling in Gujarat, spends thousands of crores of public and crony money on self-promotion and pretends to be honest, etc. They bring in demonetisation to clean up the system and bring electoral bonds for feeding themselves. It is a cruel joke on an average Indian’s intelligence. RBI Survey on consumer confidence is showing a downward trend for months and businesses are happy with the conditions. What does it tell us about the state of the Indian economy? Cronies are telling all is well, the average Indian is struggling to make ends meet. On Rafael, the minister after minister makes inconsistent statements everyday and believe that we are all foolish. In the end, they want us to shut up in the name of national security. They put up serving officers to defend their stupidity. Every one is being call names in public in full glare of camera and then they talk about that everyone is free to talk. University after university is being stuffed with cronies of all forms, whose academic credentials are suspect and they talk about bringing back glory. Shekhar Gupta points out in one of his articles about the capabilities of the Cabinet. It is hard to think that we will ever have capable people leading the country when man a the top is MA in ‘entire political science’. The University is trying to hide all the information about the PM’s education. Now same story on Rafael, we will not tell you – this time in the name of national security. We don’t care about you, except when we need you to vote. At that time, we will buy the votes in any case. if not, we you con you to believing lie through media. We have PM whose marital status was not known formally till 2014, as he is supposed to have kept the column blank!!! Our people in opposition keep quite, as either they are using the same methods to fool us (in addition to dividing the society) or are threatened with the help of intelligence agencies. Why is liquor smuggling in Gujarat not being investigated, as we all know how much money is stolen every year? Why don’t we scrap the law, if Gujarat does indeed want to drink? Same story in Bihar. Same story in Punjab and Goa on drug. What can one say when you see blatant lies and the people in the party shout at the top of their voice to defend themselves.

  2. Are buddu, Congress is the party which spoiled all the institutions in India. Including office of PM (by appointing a puppet), Office of the President, Judiciary, CEC, CVC, Office of the Governors and what not. Please read history or have some learned men as your advisors so that you will not express your ignorance again and again and be the laughing stock in-front of common man.

    • Sir, there is a difference. People like yourself were not calling other names at such a rate in the past – anytime in India’s history. We now know what you mean that the country did nothing in the last 70 years. We did not abuse each other everyday at every possible opportunity. This definitely Modi and RSS’s contribution to India
