USCIRF’s latest recommendations : Asking the US govt to sanction the RSS and even India’s intelligence agency RAW, while pushing to designate India as a “Country of Particular Concern.” Not surprising though. This is the same USCIRF that has long been accused of bias, with even calls in the US itself to dissolve the body for issuing politically motivated reports that deepen mistrust with strategic partners like India. In 2024, India’s MEA has already called it what it is, a biased organisation with a political agenda that publishes propaganda on India year after year. Now my question to USCIRF , more than 10 Hindus have been killed in Bangladesh for their religion, have you ever recommended anything about that ?

Why is US Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Bethany Poulos Morrison meeting Indian paramilitary RSS at Hudson Institute today? The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh is a Hindu nationalist paramilitary. The US government’s own USCIRF recommended sanctions against it fifty days ago, on March 4, 2026. Today, a sitting US State Department official is scheduled to share a Hudson Institute panel with Ram Madhav — a member of the RSS National Executive. Who at Department of State authorized this? Secretary Marco Rubio? Hudson Institute

Dr. Mohan Bhagwat states, RSS is: - a body of individuals and need not be registered. - the body of individuals need not pay taxes (which they get as “guru dakshina”) - RSS has economic units and they keep track and audit everything to the last paise - if the Government asks RSS to show the audit or any other reports, RSS will immediately show it as they are law abiding If the RSS chief himself is willing to show all documents, why are BJP leaders getting so upset like jilted lovers?

There's a billboard truck circling Madison Square Garden. On August 29, Mohan Bhagwat — chief of India's RSS, a Hindu nationalist paramilitary — takes the stage there. In March, the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom recommended sanctioning the RSS and barring its people from this country. No American newspaper has covered it. No elected official in New York has said a word. So the truck says it instead. RSS killed Gandhi. India banned the RSS three times. The RSS guru praised Hitler's Holocaust. RSS mobs have raped nuns and burned missionaries alive. Madison Square Garden rolls out the carpet for their chief. #RSSOutOfNYC #MohanBhagwat #RSS #Gandhi #MadisonSquareGarden #Hindutva #NYC #JimDolan #MSG #HinduNationalism

RSS has captured all the educational institutions. Every University in India has a VC who belongs to the RSS. -Shri Rahul Gandhi This is the Vice-Chancellor’s Independence Day speech at Allahabad University. She couldn't see the atrocities inflicted on the students. Her only concern is how a child dared to say something against the Prime Minister. The education system has fallen right into the hands of these RSS propagandists. As long as university campuses in India remain under the control of these Sanghis, the education system can never be fixed.

Very very important This is extremely shocking and the people of India deserve to know this. Last evening, Hon'ble Vice President of India and Rajya Sabha Chairman Sh Jagdeep Dhankar said in the House that "since the last 25 years, I have been an 'Eklavya' of the RSS". He then went on to shower praise on the RSS and said that his only "regret" was that he didn't join the RSS earlier. It was an open admission by the Hon'ble VP & Chair that he's a proud member of the RSS. Hon'ble VP & Chairman has the right to be a member of any organization that he pleases. However, 2 days ago, he expunged & removed parts of the speech of Leader of Opposition Kharge ji where he'd criticized the RSS. It is well-documented fact that the RSS is an organization that has been banned in the past for subversive activities. It is a communal organization and also, for the longest time, refused to accept the Constitution of India. Is it fair for the VP of India to be openly praising the RSS while sitting in a chair where he's expected to be neutral? It is extremely concerning and DANGEROUS that criticism of the RSS even by MPs is now being banned under the Modi Govt because the Chairman is a proud member of the RSS which he has openly admitted.

Dear Neha It was extremely disappointing seeing you support AAP. Many of us supported you because we saw AISA as separate from CJP and AAP. It is surprising that an articulate person like you has not done enough homework on RSS links of AAP. So attaching a few videos and pics here to remind everyone about AAP. Video 1 - Kejriwal himself admits that RSS played an important role in the Anna Andolan Video 2 - Ashutosh, a founding member of AAP, also admits there were RSS members in AAP and some even became AAP MLAs. Pic 1 - Kejriwal is sitting next to KN Govindacharya, an RSS ideologue who said that Kejriwal had approached him during Anna Andolan Pic 2 - Kejriwal with the infamous Anna Hazare, a known RSS karyakarta. RSS is like a hydra-headed monster that is today operating on several rungs of the present govt and even has sympathisers within the Opposition. So it's rather naive to say you are fighting BJP and RSS with the help of AAP. Hope this helps you get a better perspective on how RSS operates.

🚨BIG BREAKING* 🚨 RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat has written a letter to the Prime Minister expressing serious concern over the three passports held by Himanta's wife 👉 The RSS chief has described this issue as extremely serious and raised questions about why no action has been taken on such a major matter so far.

In 1947, Golwalkar was sent to persuade Maharaja Hari Singh to merge Kashmir with India... In 1954, volunteers played a key role in liberating Dadra and Nagar Haveli. Volunteers also sacrificed their lives for the liberation of Goa..." He adds, "The RSS has always been a strong guardian of the Constitution, democracy, and citizens' rights. In 1950, when the govt attempted to suppress freedom of speech, the RSS boldly opposed it... When the Emergency was imposed in the country in 1975, the RSS played a very leading role in protecting the Constitution and democracy... Anyone who once visits an RSS branch and observes its work closely becomes a fan of the RSS..."
