Mohan Bhagwat: Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat said on Thyrsday that people were forgetting that they belonged to one country. Addressing the valediction ceremony of the `Sangh Shiksha Varg’, he said instead of showing our strength to the enemies on the country’s borders, we are fighting among ourselves.
He said every citizen of India should make efforts for enhancing the country’s unity and integrity. During the global economic crisis and later the COVID-19 pandemic, Bhagwat said India did much better than all other countries. He added that India has got the G20 presidency this year and “this pride can be felt.”
‘We forget that we are one country’
He also talked about the country’s diverse culture and said there are several schisms related to religion and creed in our society. “We are not showing our strength to the enemies sitting on the border, but we are fighting among ourselves. We are forgetting that we are one country,” Bhagwat said.
“Everyone should make efforts for (enhancing) India’s unity and integrity. And if there are any shortcomings, we must all work on them,” he added. Some religions were from outside India, and “we had wars with them,” he said.
“But the outsiders have gone. Now everyone is insider. Still, there are people here under the influence (of outsiders) and they are our people…this has to be understood. If there is any shortcoming in their thinking, then reforming (them) is our responsibility.
‘Islam is secure here for centuries’
“Outsiders have gone, but practice of Islam is secure here for centuries,” he noted. Some people support the notion that there was no caste discrimination in India in the past, Bhagwat said. He added that one has to accept that “injustice (on account of the caste system) has taken place in our country.”
“We carry the glory of our ancestors, but we also have to repay the debts (of their mistakes),” the Sangh chief said.
