India News | RSS Gives Complete Support to Reservations Provided In  Constitution: RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat on Reservations

Nagpur (Maharashtra) [India], September 6 (ANI): The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) gives complete support to the reservations provided in the Constitution, said Sangh chief Mohan Bhagwat on Wednesday amid reservation row in Maharashtra.

"We kept our own fellow human beings behind in the social system. We did not care for them, which continued for almost 2,000 years. Until we provide them equality, some special remedies have to be done. Reservations are one of them. Reservations should continue till there is such discrimination. The Sangh gives complete support to the reservations provided in the Constitution,” the RSS chief said during an event in Maharashtra’s Nagpur.

Earlier on Friday, a clash broke out between police and protesters in Jalna demanding reservation for the Marathas. Police resorted to lathi charges to disperse the protesters.

Further, the RSS chief said, “In Sangh's culture, wherever there is a question of the nation's pride and the national flag, Sangh workers will always be at the forefront to sacrifice their lives."

Responding to the ongoing India vs Bharat row and ‘Akhand Bharat’, the RSS chief said that being ‘Bharat’ is accepting the true culture of Bharat.

"Those who separated from Bharat feel they have made a mistake...Bharat hona yani Bharat ke swabhav ko svikar karna," Bhagwat said.

The controversy over India’s name was triggered after the invitation for the G20 dinner was sent out in the name of the President of 'Bharat' and not India.

The row erupted over the issue of ‘India and Bharat’ with the members of the Opposition INDIA bloc – from the Congress to TMC, DMK to AAP – alleging it was an attempt by the “rattled” BJP to “divide people and later linked to the formation of their alliance.

The debate started after Union minister Dharmendra Pradhan shared on X, formerly Twitter, a G20 dinner invite in which Droupadi Murmu was described as the 'President of Bharat'. (ANI)
