RSS means Rashtriya Sullugarara Sangha: Prof K.S Bhagavan
Bengaluru, September 19: Rationalist Prof K.S Bhagavan said that “RSS is not Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh. Instead, it is the Rashtriya Sullugarara Sangha (National Liars Association). So, no one should believe their words”.
Speaking at a releasing programme of ‘Jumla Republic’ documentary as part of the national campaign on ‘Let us eradicate intolerance, join against fascism’, organized by the Campus Front of India here on Wednesday, he said that “The Constitution has entitled Equality, Liberty, Fraternity and Coexistence. But the RSS does not believe in it. It is acting against the Constitution. But it gives false statements to appease minorities only during election times. So, the minorities in the country should understand their position. The RSS is insulting the word ‘Sevak’ by calling themselves as ‘Swayamsevaks’”, he alleged.
In recent days, the minorities were becoming more aware. In the same way, the exploited and suppressed class in the Hindu society was also being awakened. But it would not enough to counter the attack. Awareness should be created more among people from the lower communities. It was unfortunate that no community in the society has no cultural leadership. Though a few communities have the leaders, they were claiming themselves as the great against others, he said.
The exploited in the Hindu religion did not understand the country till now. They should understand the country first. India was not restricted to any particular religion. It has several religions and castes and communities. It was not so easy to understand this. It could be understood only through continuous study and work. As the people do not have complete knowledge, the ruling class has been misleading the people, he said.
The BJP which got just 31 per cent votes in the 2014 Lok Sabha election was ruling the country and those who got 69 per cent of votes were in the opposition position. So, in the 2019 election, all opposition parties should come together, share the seats and contest against the BJP as one party, he advised.
Freedom fighter H.S Doreswamy said that “After Modi became the prime minister, the Hindutva force was getting stronger. Those who believe in Hindutva were ruling the roost. But we are also Hindus and following the Hindu religion advocated by Swami Vivekananda, Mahatma Gandhi, Ramakrishna Paramahamsa and others. BJP and Sangh Parivar have been trying to build the nation with their own Agenda. They were trying to establish Manusmriti by rejecting the Constitution. At this moment, everyone should come together to build a New India. For this purpose, all people and communities should be taken together irrespective of religions and classes”, he said.
RSS had announced that it would not hoist the national flag till the Muslims and Christians were there in the country and they would hoist their Bhagavadhwaja as national flag. But they were now preaching about the patriotism and telling that they would not keep Muslims away from the society. It was an election gimmick and it should not be supported, he said.
CFI national president P.V Suhaib, General secretary T. Abdul Nasir, State President Mohammad Tafsir, General secretary Ravoof, Central committee members P. Abdul Nasir and Wasim were present.
“RSS, its allies and the ruling government have been trying to destroy the education system. Recently, when they understood that they would not win in the JNU election, the ABVP, the students wing of the Sangh Parivar, has acted against the democratic system. But ultimately, democracy has won. The ruling party has been targeting the activists, writers, litterateurs and others and branding them as naxals. If we protest and oppose their moves, they were calling us traitors”.

Minor boy strangled to death for ransom in UP's Sultanpur
Sultanpur (PTI): A debt-ridden neighbour allegedly kidnapped and murdered an 11-year-old boy boy at Sultanpur, police said on Wednesday.

"The incident took place in the Gandhinagar locality of Sultanpur. The victim's father, Mohd Shakeel, said his son went missing on Monday night after he left to attend a wedding procession. Despite searches, there was no trace of the child," the SHO said.
On Wednesday morning, Osama's body with strangulation marks was found at the residence of the accused whom the police arrested, he said.
