Pourquoi c'est important
The RSS has been a central figure in Indian politics, influencing the BJP. Its stance on Hindutva impacts minority relations.
RSS leader Dattatreya Hosabale asserts India has always been a Hindu nation, citing shared ancestry and DNA among all citizens, including non-Hindus. He claims minorities are not second-class citizens and are safe, pointing to government schemes reaching all regardless of religion. However, opposition and Muslim leaders counter that minorities feel deceived since the BJP's rise in 2014, citing incidents of lynching, 'love jihad' accusations, and daily discriminations. Hosabale attributes these fears to unnecessary creation by repeatedly raising such questions. The RSS engages in dialogue with minority leaders, believing the concept of minority is baseless given the shared heritage. The statement sparks debate on the nation-state concept amidst accusations of increasing Hindutva influence.
