Hosabale says Congress must apologise for the Emergency and excesses committed under Indira Gandhi’s watch. ‘Those who did such things are today moving around with copy of the Constitution.’
Statement by Mohan Bhagwat and Dattatreya Hosabale said they agree that military action against terrorists & their infrastructure in Pakistan was necessary for security of the country.
In interview to Sangh’s Kannada mouthpiece, Vikrama, Hosabale also remarked: ‘If we talk about all other mosques and structures, should we start digging up 30,000 mosques?’
Speaking in Bengaluru at Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha, the RSS General Secretary referred to Aurangzeb's return to mainstream political discourse in last few weeks.
Dattatreya Hosabale also spoke about revisiting concept of minority as it exists in Constitution, says RSS regards all as Hindus based on nationality, regardless of religion they follow.
Hosabale was elected to post of sarkaryavah or general secretary in 2021. Elections to post are held every 3 years at meeting of Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha.
RSS general secretary says 37 lakh swayamsevaks attend shakhas regularly & those part of training will be made to visit villages to gain better understanding of Sangh’s initiatives.
At RSS's Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha, general secretary Dattatreya Hosabale referred to the Congress MP's London address & said 'no comparison' between his politics and Sangh work.
India’s industrial output growth saw a 10-month low in June, with Index of Industrial Production (IIP) growing by mere 1.5% as against 1.9% in May 2025.
Standing up to America is usually not a personal risk for a leader in India. Any suggestions of foreign pressure unites India behind who they see as leading them in that fight.
Mr. Hosabale is right based on his point of view. But asking present day Congress to apologise for the mistakes of their ancestors is a little rich, given that Congress has repeatedly regretted the excesses and the imposition of emergency.
He may also want to reflect on the fact that there are many reports of ‘puran polis’ (a Maharashtrian delicacy) being prepared in several RSS shakhas and in several Sangh familities when it was announced that Mahatam Gandhi had been assasinated.
The Sangh has bee preaching majoritariansim since its formation and today they have support from the centre. Nothing else is expected of them but to dismatle pluraistic way of life. This is the same playbook employed by Sri Lanka, Pakistan in the 70s and 80s, Malayasia and Israel. It did not to much good to any of these nations.
