RSS: 100 years in the service of Mother India
The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) celebrates 100 years of its selfless service to the nation. Over the past 100 years the organisation has faced several challenges, including the partition of the country, the ban imposed by the Nehru government, the massive crackdown by the Indira Gandhi regime during Emergency etc. Through each of these periods of crisis, the Sangh has emerged as a stronger organisation. The V.P. Singh government's espousal of the Mandal commission report threatened to divide Hindu society on casteist lines. The Sangh under the leadership of the then Sarsangchalak revived the Ramjanmabhumi movement to counter that and unify Hindu society on the Ayodhya temple issue. Interestingly, the Sangh Parivar has managed to make Hindutva ideology politically correct and mainstream. Today there is greater awareness among millions of Hindus in an unprecedented manner. Secularism is increasingly being perceived as an anti-Hindu concept. The Bharatiya Janata Party, which is widely believed to be the political arm of the RSS, is today in a commanding position on the political spectrum under the leadership of Narendra Modi, who started his career as an RSS pracharak.
