Nagpur, January 18: Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat on Friday said unemployment and inflation increased in the counrty, in an apparent criticism of Prime Minister Narendra Modi led government. Bhagwat said even those who play no role in making policies for the country had to suffer due to rising unemployment and inflation.

"The policies in the country affect everybody. I do not make the policy nor you, but we all have to bear its impact. Inflation increased, I did not increase it nor you, but we all have to suffer. Unemployment increased, I did not increase it nor you, but we all have to suffer. That is why we will have to learn to live for our country," he said at the silver jubilee of the Prahaar Samaaj Jagruti Sanstha. Narendra Modi Warn Pakistan Says, Indian Soldiers will Give Befitting Reply to Attempts of Ruining India's Peace.

The RSS chief also said requisite steps need to combat killings on the border, as soldiers are being martyred sans a war-like situation in the country. "In our country, there is no war at the moment, still people (soldiers) are getting martyred...Because we are not doing our jobs properly. We need to make efforts in this regard. If we want our country to reach the top, then we all should learn to sacrifice," Bhagwat said.

His comments came after RSS general secretary Suresh 'Bhaiyyaji' Joshi rued the delay in the construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya and sarcastically remarked that "now, it (the temple) will be constructed only in 2025."
