From RSSs role in the MK Gandhi's assassination, Gujrat's riots, to the Samjhauta Express bombings, Ajmer Dargah attacks, to the cow vigilatelism, beating up couples at valentine's day - the list is pretty long to consider RSS as Religious terrorists.
- eklavya 6y agoAre you sure you are talking about RSS? Are you talking about shivsena, Bajrang dal, Hindu sena?
- rishav_sharan 6y agoBajrang Dal is an offshoot of RSS and is part of the Sangh family. Shivsena I wouldn't club them completely with the other Sangh family but they too have a sordid past of religious fundamentalism. I can't comment much on Hindu Sena as I am not well aware of their activities.
- eklavya 6y agoI was mostly talking about the Valentine beatings which are the exclusive domain of shivsena.
- srean 6y agoCitation please. Specifically looking for link with Shiv Sena where couple's in UP and Haryana were lynched on Valentine's day. Since these were public, what has RSS done to distance themselves from those lynchings (A rhetorical question of course)
- srean 6y agoGiven your knowledge in these matters I am sure you know that Bajrang Dal is part of the RSS ideology in the sense its part of the Jan Sangh. That you chose to ignore that makes me doubt the degree of good faith in your question. You are just trying to poison and cloud the discourse.
- hesarenu 6y agoSo if some members of a group were involved in these activities do you blame the whole group? Are you consistent with you beliefs on labeling groups?
- srean 6y agoIf the government took action against these guys as opposed to covert support and encouragement you would have a point. How many public lynchers have been convicted ? (Its a rhetorical question) Why has the Modi government passed orders not to record lynching related deaths ? (again a rhetorical question) https://indianexpress.com/article/india/ncrb-leaves-out-data-on-lynchings-khap-and-religious-killings-6081188/ https://indianexpress.com/article/india/ncrb-leaves-out-data... May be you should take your lecture to the government friendly media about branding the entire movement as Khalistani, Pakistani terrorists.
- hesarenu 6y agoOP mentioned RSS as terrorists because their members did violent acts. Now i know a religion whose members are usually involved in terrorists acts. We don't label them as terrorists as it should be. So tell me. Are you consistent with you beliefs on labeling groups?
- srean 6y ago> We don't label them as terrorists That's pretty much all the government cosy media does -- handing out certificates about who is patriotic and who is not. If members does an act in the name of an org and that is against the values of the organization. Its for the organization to clarify that their values do not match with the cations taken by these group. This is what the farmer protester groups did when violence occurred. This what they did when cell towers were vandalized. The RSS on the other hand has stayed mum which in normal course of action will be and is taken as tacit support. Of course I don't read all of RSS's press releases. If you have pointers to RSS official press releases where they have condemned specific attacks I would be very interested to read.
