राष्ट्रीय स्वयंसेवक संघाने मला काय दिले ?
कालच दहावीची परीक्षा दिलेला माझा धाकटा
मुलगा संघाचे पंधरा दिवसांचे शिबीर पूर्ण करून
परतला.आठ दिवस सातारा येथे प्राथमिक शिबीर झाले आणि नंतर लगेच विस्तारक म्हणून शिरवळ येथे फिल्डवर काम केले. तिथे तो वार लावून जेवला. @RSSorg #RSS Image
वरती पत्रा असलेल्या एका जुन्या वाड्यात राहिला.
तिथे त्याला स्वावलंबन शिकायला मिळाले.
गावातील अनेक लोकांकडे दिवसभर फिरून त्याने
अनेक ओळखी करून घेतल्या.
सायंकाळी लहान मुलांच्या शाखेत काम केल्याने
नेतृत्व कसे करावे हे त्याच्या लक्षात आले.
आणि सर्वात महत्वाचे म्हणजे संघाची शिस्त त्याच्या
अंगात भिनू लागली.त्याची आई गावाला गेलेली, त्यामुळे घराची अवस्था बघण्यासारखीच होती.
"काय बाबा, घर आहे की उकिरडा ?"
असे म्हणून चहासुद्धा न पिता त्याने संपूर्ण घर
आवरले. पादत्राणे एका ओळीत ठेवली. @friendsofrss

बजरंग दल
"बजरंग दल" राष्ट्रीय स्वयंसेवक संघ के तमाम छद्म संगठनों में से एक है, "विश्व हिन्दू परिषद" से भी उग्र यह संघ का सबसे हिंसक संगठन है जिसमें संघ बेहद कम उम्र के युवाओं की भर्ती करता है।
त्रिशूल और फ़रसा इसी संगठन में छोटे छोटे बच्चों से लेकर युवाओं तक बांटें जाते हैं और इसी "बजरंग दल" के लोग देश के सभी दंगों, शोभा यात्रा में मस्जिदों और मज़ारों पर आक्रमण या भगवा फहराते हैं। गोरक्षा के नाम पर, श्रीराम के नाम पर मुसलमानों की लिंचिंग करने वाले लगभग सभी
इसी संगठन के लोग होते हैं यह एक नहीं तमाम बार सामने आ चुका है।
उत्तर प्रदेश पुलिस के इंस्पेक्टर सुबोध कुमार सिंह की हत्या करके लटका‌ देने वाले भी इसी संगठन के लोग थे। उड़ीसा में ग्राहम स्टेंस और उनके बच्चों को कार में जलाकर मार डालने वाले लोग यही थे त़ो शंभू रैगर भी इसी संगठन

1. The election of Narendra Modi as the choice for millions in the world’s largest democracy is a bit galling to those whose concept of ‘democratic’ resembles Lenin’s armed force against the elected government of Alexander Kerensky in revolutionary Russia.
2. Yet even before Modi’s election in what proved to be a pivotal moment in Indian democracy the anti-Hindu blood hounds were out in force. Of these Priyamvada Gopal is one the most prominent.
3. Gopal teaches English literature at the University of Cambridge but her true passion is formulating hate speech against Hindu sentiments from the pages of the notorious British anti-Hindu rag, the Guardian on 14 May 2014.

1/3 Many people asked me whats happening in #Kerala
My answer:
~U forgot TSD (the secret #MilitaryIntelligence unit’s) 1st soldier was arrested from Kerala.
~U forgot forget #NambiNarayanan was arrested from Kerala
~U forgot a Malayali was the defence Minster in Nehru’s… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
2/3 ~U forgot that it was during another Malayali’s term as a Defence Minister (#AkAntony) that we lost some more land to China and Defence’s progress stalled.
~U forgot that communists from this state supported China during 1962.
~U forgot that when rest of India snubbed… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
3/3 U forgot that #RSS and #Communists have been fighting a survival of the fittest war in Kerala. But have no doubt that I am a proud Malayali and a proud Indian. I am just glad that the inimical elements from Kerala are now being exposed. 👍 #AchheDin

Much of the writings about #VDSavarkar paint him in black-&-white, when the truth lies in shades of grey. Brushing inconvenient facts under the carpet, does not do justice to #Savarkar's complex personality. This is a thread about Savarkar from a historic perspective #history Image
On 9 June 1906, Vinayak Damodar Savarkar, a 23-year-old from Nashik, bid adieu to wife Yamuna and their toddler son Prabhakar, and boarded the SS Persia in Bombay to sail for England to study law. However, even as he was in the high seas,
Stanley Egerley from the Bombay government’s special department sent a confidential letter (14 June) to R. Ritchie in the India Office, London, about Savarkar. Egerley said Savarkar held “…somewhat the same opinions” as the revolutionary Damodar Hari Chaphekar, who assassinated

Vinayak Damodar Savarkar is one of the most complex personalities in recent history. Read this thread to know more about #Savarkar, the man, revolutionary and #Hindutva demagogue.

#thread #history #RahulGandhi #MahatmaGandhi #UddhavThackeray #RSS #ShivSena #Maharashtra #Hindu Image
Unfortunately, when the debate is polarised between the extremes of black & white, it does not do justice to the complex personality of #Savarkar as a man, revolutionary, reformer, #Hindutva ideologue & an accused in the assassination of #MahatmaGandhi.
What makes #Savarkar stand out among his contemporaries is his strong hero complex bordering on narcissism, and the extreme and often contradictory elements of his personality.

It is claimed that #VDSavarkar had no relationship with the #RSS. But, this is not borne out of historical evidence. Read this thread to know more.

While in the Ratnagiri jail, where Savarkar was shifted in 1921 from the Cellular jail in the Andamans, he wrote his seminal work ‘Essentials of Hindutva,’ which laid the foundations of Hindutva as an ideology.
It laid emphasis on cultural nationalism as against a territorial one, and said that India was for the Hindus alone, and not for the Muslims or the Christians.

Rohatgi takes court through chronology of events.

"There is no absolute right to hold a procession. It is subject to various restrictions in Part III of the Constitution. How can there be direction that marches can be held wherever desired? Some balance!"

#SupremeCourt to hear today Tamil Nadu Govt's plea challenging the Madras HC order which removed the conditions imposed for RSS route march in Tamil Nadu districts.

Senior Advocate Mukul Rohatgi, for the State of TN, informs the bench that a separate SLP has been filed against the original order passed by the Madras HC on 22.09.2022. Requests the bench to take up the matter next week along with the SLP.

#SupremeCourtOfIndia #RSS
RSS's Lawyer : They were supposed to give us suggestions to us (on routes). Now they say they have filed a new SLP. This is so unfair to the Court.
