โThe concept of Hindu Rashtra is being discussed all over. Many agree with the concept but are opposed to the word Hindu and prefer to use other words. We donโt have any issue with that. For the clarity of concept, we will keep emphasizing the word Hindu for ourselves,โ the RSS chief further said.
The RSS also made a change in its tradition by inviting a woman at the organisationโs Viyayadashami celebrations on Wednesday.
This was for the first time in its history of the RSS that a woman โ mountaineer Santosh Yadav โ was invited as the chief guest on the occasion.
“We must empower our women. Society can’t progress without women,” said Mohan Bhagwat.
Moreover, RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat also commented on the population โimbalanceโ in India.
โPopulation imbalance leads to changes in geographical boundaries. Population control and religion-based population balance is an important subject that can no longer be ignored,โ Bhagwat said.
