India’s current government is led by the Bharatiya Janta Party or the BJP. It is also the country’s largest national party. It was formed in 1980, though its origins lie in the Bharatiya Jana Sangh, which was founded in 1951. The Jana Sangh was closely associated with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), a Hindu nationalist organization that continues to play a significant role in shaping the BJP’s ideology.
The party first came to power at the center in 1996, but its government lasted only 13 days. It returned to power in 1998, forming a coalition under the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), with Atal Bihari Vajpayee as Prime Minister. His tenure saw India conducting nuclear tests in 1998, economic reforms, and a focus on infrastructure development. However, the BJP lost power in 2004 to the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA).
The BJP made a historic comeback in 2014 by securing 282 seats out of 543 in the Lok Sabha, with Narendra Modi as India’s prime minister. Major policy changes include the revocation of Article 370, which granted special status to Jammu and Kashmir, the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) 2019, and the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Act, 2019 that criminalized triple talaq in India.
The government’s handling of several protests and crises has faced widespread scrutiny. The 2020–2021 farmer protests, which were sparked by the controversial farm laws that were later repealed, drew significant public attention, with criticism directed at the use of force and the management of the situation. Similarly, the government’s response to the 2019 Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) protests raised concerns over its handling of dissent, particularly the use of force. The BJP’s management of the COVID-19 pandemic also attracted criticism, especially regarding the lack of transparency around the death toll, shortages of medical resources like oxygen cylinders, and inadequate preparedness during the second wave.
Additionally, the ongoing inter-tribe conflict in Manipur, which erupted in 2023, has faced criticism for the government’s perceived failure to take adequate action, with accusations of poor crisis management and insufficient intervention in addressing the escalating violence.

Just as History written by the rulers and their henchmen, in India’s case it was Colonials of different ideologies basically all Invaders, later after 1947 by Leftists who wants India to be broken into 7 parts or more. No wonder Rulers wrote their His”story obviously unsung Heroes never get their due recognition But then this is the time to rebalance this ugly one way Story. Let more and more people write their contributions to Bharat ie. India. The bright part is more newScientific evidences helping us to shape up the real History.
Pranab after formation of Janta Sarkar left a suitcase having 50 lakhs eith a South Delhi cinema Owner and ran away to Bengal…and you talk RSS did not invite Chidambaram because of cases against him.? This is material corruption in 1977 and morally we all have seen his U turn by calling Dr.Hegdewar son of India after in 2010 he passed a UPA govt. resolution asking for CBI probe in emerging RSS terror links in those days in multiple terror blasts.
The reason why N. Godse killed Mahatma Gandhi has mentioned below by Pracharak Narendra Sehgal..
“The fact is there is not even a single Congress leader who was given a death sentence or was tortured inside the jail or gave his life for the country during the freedom struggle. Except Lala Lajpat Rai who sacrificed his life during a movement, Congress cannot name any other leader”

“If the government in their manifold beneficence and mercy release me, I for one cannot but be the staunchest advocate of… loyalty to the English government”. Savarkar’s mercy petition to British in 1913. Masquerading as Chitragupta, he authored a self-praising ‘biography’, Life of Barrister Savarkar. Yes they did play a role in freedom struggle – to damage the freedom movement by pushing his divisive ideologies and actively recruiting Indians for British Army that helped to defeat Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose’s INA.
Perhaps RSS authors should specialize in fiction that’s seems to be their specialty. Sadly there are some good things about the RSS but they seem determined to bring out the worst in themselves when there is no need to. Let them begin by disowning Savarkar for their own good and that of this great country where hate is not the agenda!
The country wants to know from RSS historians that if RSS , Hindu Maha Sabha and Muslim league was patriotic then who helped 45k Britishers to rule 45 crore Indian (pre partion population)? Also that If RSS, Hindu MahaSabha and Muslim league were patriotic then who gave evidences against freedom fighters in the British courts?
Is this not true that it was Hindu Mahasabha workers who started RSS and all RSS members are BJP voters now? Is it not true that since 1947 Hindu Mahasabha and RSS are working on one political agenda and that is polarisation of Hindu votes to get power?
Country has been waiting for the last 70 years to get a reply from the RSS on these questions?
Why Hedgewar didnt want to name sangh in any activity ?
Whome did he afraid of ?
Why did he ordered sanghis not to participate in Quit India Movement ?
Whome did he afraid of ?
There are Swadeshi movement, Simon go back, civil dis obedience movement, Quit india movement, dandi yatra etc. Initiated by congress.
Even Muslim league initiated khilafat movement.
Now name any movement initiated by RSS againt british.
This why suvarkar was writing clemency applications he was not interested in writing his biography.
Farmers (RSS) churned the milk & the Lords (Scamgress) enjoyed/enjoying the cream. People have understood Scamgress will be out.
RSS had too many Jokes. So in 1980 they formed Bharatiya Joker Party as a Joke Sharing Club. So now we can hear jokes from Biplab Deb or Dinesh Sharma too.
Nice story. I did not know the funny side of RSS.
