RSS Hatred for Democratic-Secular India

Advertisement

The RSS, contrary to the principles of democracy, constantly demanded India to be ruled under a totalitarian regime. Golwalkar while delivering a speech before the 1350 top level cadres of the RSS in 1940 declared,

“RSS inspired by one flag [saffron], one leader and one ideology is lighting the flame of Hindutva in each and every corner of this great land.”[i]

This slogan of one flag, one leader and one ideology was directly borrowed from the programmes of Nazi and Fascist parties of Europe.

The English organ of the RSS, Organiser, on the very eve of Independence (August 14, 1947) editorially chalked out its concept of nation in the following words:

“Let us no longer allow ourselves to be influenced by false notions of nationhood. Much of the mental confusion and the present and future troubles can be removed by the ready recognition of the simple fact that in Hindusthan only the Hindus form the nation and the national structure must be built on that safe and sound foundation…the nation itself must be built up of Hindus, on Hindu traditions, culture, ideas and aspirations.”

Golwalkar Planned Massacre of Muslims on the Eve of Indian Independence

So RSS under Golwalkar was committed to the cleansing of Muslims from India. He was personally involved in this evil project as was corroborated by the first home secretary of Uttar Pradesh, Rajeshwar Dayal, and a senior bureaucrat in his autobiography.

“I must record an episode of a very grave nature when the procrastination and indecision of the UP Cabinet led to dire consequences. When communal tension was still at fever pitch, the Deputy Inspector General of Police of the Western Range, a very seasoned and capable officer, B. B. L. Jaitley, arrived at my house in great secrecy. He was accompanied by two of his officers who brought with them two large steel trunks securely locked. When the trunks were opened, they revealed incontrovertible evidence of a dastardly conspiracy to create a communal holocaust throughout the Western districts of the province. The trunks were crammed with blueprints of great accuracy and professionalism of every town and village in that vast area, prominently marking out the Muslim localities and habitations. There were also detailed instructions regarding access to the various locations, and other matters which amply revealed the sinister purport.

Greatly alarmed by those revelations, I immediately took the police party to the Premier’s [Govind Vallabh Pant of the INC] house. There, in a closed room, Jaitley gave a full report of his discovery, backed by all the evidence contained in the steel trunks. Timely raids conducted on the premises of the RSS (Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh) had brought the massive conspiracy to light. The whole plot had been concerted under the direction and supervision of the Supremo of the organization [Golwalkar] himself.[ii]

Of course, Pant an RSS mole in the Congress took no action despite Golwalkar present in the area. He was never charged for this attempt of massacre of Muslims.

Even Sardar Patel Underlined Massacre of Muslims During the Partition by the RSS

It is well-known that the then Home Minister of India, Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel, had a soft-corner for the RSS and continues to be a favourite with the RSS. However even Sardar Patel found it difficult to defend the RSS for its role in the post-Partition massacre of Muslims. In a letter written to Golwalkar (the then Supremo of the RSS), dated 11 September 1948, Sardar Patel stated:

“Organizing the Hindus and helping them is one thing but going in for revenge for its sufferings on innocent and helpless men, women and children is quite another thing…”[iii]

Highly Decorated Indian Police Officer on RSS Terrorism Under Modi Rule

There are instances of other honest senior officials who had the courage to bring in public domain record RSS’ terrorist activities. How RSS spread hatred and terrorized minorities of India in less than a year of Modi first term as the PM (2014-19) of India was described in detail by one of the most decorated cops of India, Julio Ribeiro, former ambassador to Romania and recipient of the Padma Bhushan, a prominent national award in the following words. Petrified as a Christian, he wrote on March 17, 2015:

Today, in my 86th year, I feel threatened, not wanted, reduced to a stranger in my own country.  The same category of citizens who had put their trust in me to rescue them from a force they could not comprehend have now come out of the woodwork to condemn me for practising a religion that is different from theirs. I am not an Indian anymore, at least in the eyes of the proponents of the Hindu Rashtra.

Is it coincidence or a well-thought-out plan that the systematic targeting of a small and peaceful community should begin only after the BJP government of Narendra Modi came to power last May? ‘Ghar wapsi’, the declaration of Christmas as ‘Good Governance Day’, the attack on Christian churches and schools in Delhi, all added to a sense of siege that now afflicts these peaceful people.

Christians have consistently punched above their weight — not as much as the tiny Parsi community, but just as noticeably. Education, in particular, has been their forte. Many schools, colleges, related establishments that teach skills for jobs have been set up and run by Christians. They are much in demand. Even diehard Hindus have sought admission in such centres of learning and benefited from the commitment and sincerity of Christian teachers. Incidentally, no one seems to have been converted to Christianity, though many, many have imbibed Christian values and turned ‘pseudo-secularist’.

The Indian army was headed by a Christian general, the navy more than once, and same with the air force. The country’s defence forces have countless men and women in uniform who are Christians. How can they be declared non-Indians by Parivar hotheads out to create a pure Hindu Rashtra?

It is tragic that these extremists have been emboldened beyond permissible limits by an atmosphere of hate and distrust. The Christian population, a mere 2 per cent of the total populace, has been subjected to a series of well-directed body blows. If these extremists later turn their attention to Muslims, which seems to be their goal, they will invite consequences that this writer dreads to imagine.[iv]

What Golwalkar’s favourite RSS student, Modi did to Gujarat Muslims in 2002 would be clear from the following words of an editorial in a prominent English daily of India, Hindustan Times,

“Daughters were gang-raped in front of their fathers and then had their heads bashed in. Their fathers were doused with petrol and set on fire. Their property was looted. Their businesses were destroyed. And the police stood by and did nothing.[v]

For RSS Indian Muslims & Christians are ‘Internal Threat’ Number One & Two Respectively

In fact, the ‘Holy’ book for the RSS cadres  Bunch of Thoughts, has a long chapter titled as ‘Internal Threats’ in which Muslims and Christians are described as threat number one and two respectively. This chapter opens with the following statement.

“It has been the tragic lesson of the history of many a country in the world that the hostile elements within the country pose a far greater menace to national security then aggressors from outside.”[vi]

While treating Muslims as ‘Internal Threat’ number one, Golwalkar goes on to elaborate,

“Even to this day there are so many who say, ‘now there is no Muslim problem at all. All those riotous elements who supported Pakistan have gone away once for all. The remaining Muslims are devoted to our country. After all, they have no other place to go and they are bound to remain loyal’….It would be suicidal to delude ourselves into believing that they have turned patriots overnight after the creation of Pakistan. On the contrary, the Muslim menace has increased a hundredfold by the creation of Pakistan which has become a springboard for all their future aggressive designs on our country.”[vii]

He goes on to spit venom against common Muslims in the following words,

“…within the country there are so many Muslim pockets, i.e., so many ‘miniature Pakistans’…The conclusion is that, in practically every place, there are Muslims who are in constant touch with Pakistan over the transmitter…”[viii]

According to him every Muslim in India is untrustworthy and disloyal,

“Even today, Muslims, whether in high positions of the Government or outside, participate openly in rabidly anti-national conferences.”[ix]

While deliberating on the ‘Internal Threat’ number two, he says,

“Such is the role of Christian gentlemen residing in our land today, out to demolish not only the religious and social fabric of our life but also to establish political domination in various pockets and if possible all over the land.”[x]

This book from Guru of Hate, Golwalkar denigrates the Indian Constitution, concept of equality, justice and the Tricolour; the national flag. It attracts at least 20 Indian Penal Code charges but continues to be sold in all Indian languages and the best-seller for RSS.

Sikhism, Jainism, and Buddhism not Independent Religions

RSS regards followers of Islam and Christianity as emigrant or foreigners and demands their cleansing as these two religions are declared to be foreign religions. However, RSS has no respect for Indian religions like Sikhism, Buddhism and Jainism as these are not treated as independent religions but part of Hinduism. Guru Golwalkar set the agenda by declaring that, “the Buddhists, the Jain, the Sikh are all included in that one comprehensive word ‘Hindu'”.[xi] In fact, Golwalkar learnt this denial to Sikhism, Jainism and Buddhism the status of independent religions from senior Hindutva icon, Savarkar who believed that the followers of,

“Vaidicism, Sanatanism, Jainism, Buddism, Lingaitism, Shikhism, the Arya Samaji, the Brahmasamaj, the Devasamaj, the Prarthana Samaji and such other religions of Indian origin are Hindus and constitute Hindudom, i.e., the Hindu people as a whole.”[xii]

  1. rubbish

    you are full off hate- and your article has no supporters except you.

    if rss was such as you portray they would have been destroyed under congress rule.

    nehru admired rss for their support when china attacked india in 1962.

    indira gandhi issued a stamp to honour sarvarkar..
    hindus are devoted to india-people like you are devoted to islam, and your ummah.

    muslims devided india- jinnah said hindus and muslims could not live togather.
    he started direct action day in kolkutta when 10,000hindus were killed.

    you article proved your hatred for hindus, justifying what rss thinks of you.

    in no country in the west are muslims loyal citizens-for you muslims are one nation- and unbelievers
    are not friends.

    no country in the west trusts muslims, and have now banned any further immigration.
    there are 3 hindus in british cabinet, and occupy some of highest posts in usa.

    well you know what british, usa thinks of muslims like you.

    i find it strange you write articles like this.perhaps because you hate hindus-attacking rss is just a smart way of doing so.
    why do you live in india. especially now bjp and rss are in power.move over to pakistan amongst the believers

    no hindu would dare write such an article in pakistan-

    frankly inthink you are mentally deranged

  2. write about massacres of bangladesh,s hindus and muslims in 1971.

    about abu bakar who sold women as slaves, and beheaded men as part of islam

    about daily killings in afghanistan.

    onlysoft govt tolerates such people,

    he should be put in a truck with family and dumped into democratic, secular pakistan

    foul, barabric so called professor. a foot soldier of jehadi muslims

  3. had rss,hindus been like muslims, there would not be so many muslims in india, liveing in muslim mini pakistans.

    jinnah was right-muslims in pakistan, hindus, psrsees,sikhs,christians in india.

    why do people like this bigoted professor live in india. why does he not leave for muslim countries.
    he should be deported ,

    hindus should be as anti muslim as muslims are anti non believers,

    quid pro quo

  4. the nazi,s admired the ancient hindu aryan civilistion. they claimed they were aryans- adopted the emblem swastic- the hindu symbol of purity,t hitler admird ancient hindu civilsation, with accent on national purity

    the rss reciprocatd. flattered by nazi admmiration of hindu culture.

    the article shows the ignorance of history,,
    today muslims across the world are emulateing the nazi,s. one ummah, one god, and hate for the unbelivers,just as hitler hate for the jews, non aryans

    muslims by ignorance, bigotry have ensured their down fall. especially indian muslims. not one admired leader,
    zero achievments in science, technology, arts and science,

    their one hero- bilkis bano- a poor 82 toothless woman.

    fake professors- who see no virtue in hindu community

    gita gopinathan-chief economist imf, ms subramanium chief scientist who, and now kamal devi harrison-hindu mother.
    as vice president candidate for usa- preitty patel home mnister uk.

    those whom the gods wish to destroy, they first tun them mad.

  5. rss should have formed a hindu state in 1947-

    put nehru out of power

    rss is a useless ,boy scout organanisation,with old useless leaders.trying to prove they are seculars

    power is obtained by use of guns, and not lathis

    bigoted muslims keep attacking rss. its part of their hate of hindus.

    what a joke. muslims have no political idealogy-5 times prayers, masjid on fridays, beards, burqas.

    they were happy under british rule-

    most are converted dalits, backward. they believe they were arabs ,

    these fake professors are unhappy with hindu bjp, hopeless, stupid by western standards

    quite happy being ruled by congress under italian sonia

    where were these professors educated. ? in europe they would only get jobs as taxi drivers or in pakistani restaurants

    • My dear Simone (or whatever your real name is). Please calm down my child and read this with a calm, intellectual mind – Say Omm…Omm
      1) These articles don’t spread hate – unfortunately, they speak the truth about RSS (with so many references shown as evidence, of which most are authored by non-Muslims)
      2) I don’t believe the author hates Hindus – he is just highlighting the hateful ideology of the RSS. In fact, I am sure the author has many Hindu friends whom he has high regard for. It is time for us Hindus to embrace the spirituality of Hinduism with its ideology of peace, love and tolerance and not let the Hindutva forces hijack our beautiful religion
      3) I think you prove the author’s point by your vitriolic outrage – obviously fueled by the hate imbibed in you by the Sangh Parivar – so, I don’t really blame you because you have become a victim of their brainwashing. My only appeal to you is to step back and think independently. Omm
      4) Let us Hindus unite under our dharma of the true teachings of Hinduism and reject the hate and intolerance. This is what is in the best interest of India – historically, any hateful ideology has only ruined nations and I cannot let my wonderful nation go down this path. Just ask yourself if any of this divisive politics has actually benefited you personally or has it benefited any of your friends or family – has it helped them financially, spiritually…The only people this has benefited is the politicians and their high level businessmen friends. The general public is still struggling with daily challenges and it is getting worse. They keep riling up the masses to hate each other while they sit in their comfortable domains watching us kill each other.
      5) Please spread this word. Let us take control of our own lives and not let these evil politicians control us. Jai Hind!!!

  7. The RSS is the best recipe for the next partition of India. The present mascots of the RSS – Modi and Shah – are leading the way. Anyway, Modi is already known as the Divider-in-chief of India. Time is coming soon when each State in India will clamour for independence – only because of the oppressive and hegemonic ideology of the RSS. Very cleverly the RSS is using the present Constitution to usher in Manu’s Hindu Rashtra. However, it cannot fool all the people all the time.
