The statement made by Priyank Kharge, son of Karnataka Minister and Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, demanding a ban on Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) has gained momentum. BJP has strongly criticized this. In the same episode, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis called it a mere publicity stunt and said that Indira Gandhi had also tried to ban RSS, but she had to lose power.
Chief Minister Fadnavis gave this statement in response to the questions of journalists on Monday in Amravati. He said that no one asks such people that is why they give such statements.
Devendra Fadnavis’s statement
On the question asked about the ban on RSS, Fadnavis said that he gives such statements only for publicity. Indira Gandhi had also made such an attempt and she had to leave power.
He further said that we do not even respond to such people. No one even asks him. Fadnavis also said that RSS is a patriotic organization and Kharge’s politics depends on his father, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge. Therefore there is no need to take them seriously.
What did Priyank Kharge say?
Let us tell you that Priyank Kharge is the Minister of State for IT and Panchayati in the Government of Karnataka. He had written a letter to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah demanding a ban on RSS in the state. He had argued that the culture of RSS is against the unity and secular structure of India. They have been running special RSS shakhas and other activities in government and government-run schools, public grounds, government temples, archaeological sites, parks and other government premises.
Through slogans, negative thoughts are being instilled in the minds of children and youth. All these are against the Constitution and moral values ​​of the country, hence it should be banned. Many other BJP leaders have reacted sharply to Kharge’s statement. It is believed that this issue will heat up further.
