Seeing the Sangh is the world’s first comprehensive map of the organisational affiliates surrounding the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh—which together constitute the largest far-right network in the world. This interactive dataset, which currently includes comprehensive qualitative and quantitative data on over two thousand and five hundred organisations, is stored at a repository housed at the Science Po’s Centre for International Studies (CERI), and has been fact-checked and published by The Caravan. It will be available soon. Tags: [#SeeingTheSangh #rss100years]

At the middle of the Gadkari family's sprawling agro-business empire is Rembal Agro, a beef company that has quietly risen to international prominence. Rehan Ahmed Qureshi, a Nagpur resident who managed operations on the ground for Rembal, told The Caravan’s former staff writer, Kaushal Shroff, that he entered the business because he believed Gadkari’s ownership would offer a measure of safety. In March 2022, one of the beef exporter’s trucks was seized by the Maharashtra police in Lonavala. The case left a large hole in Rehan’s pocket and he described going to the Gadkari household three or four times, to meet the minister’s son, Nikhil Gadkari. Each time, Nikhil gave him empty assurances. Rehan was cut loose, and disappointed. And here lies the issue. Nothing the Gadkaris are doing is patently illegal, apart from perhaps false advertising. But, while the companies’ owners derive steep profits from selling beef, which contributes the single largest portion of Rembal’s revenue, the histrionic cow-protection politics the Bharatiya Janata Party unleashed has ended up criminalising Muslim workers of their own enterprises.

While Prime Minister Narendra Modi has hailed RSS as the world's largest non-governmental organization (NGO), a lesser-known fact is that the RSS is not a registered entity. Despite controlling a significant portfolio of properties, its name does not appear on the official paperwork for those assets. This unique structure is seen by many as a strategic measure to avoid legal challenges and maintain a degree of operational ambiguity. In this episode of #TheCaravanBaatcheet, staff writer Amrita Singh (Amrita) talks to host Vishnu Sharma (V!shnu) about how the Sangh operates, the way it maintains control over its properties, and the possible motives behind its decision to remain an unregistered entity. Watch now to understand the inner workings and the hidden structure of this unaccountable organisation: #RSSorg #RSS100Years #SanghParivar
