RSS, an anti-Hindu element: Former BD leader Mahendra Kumar

Mangaluru: “Since the Rashtriya Swaymsevak Sangh (RSS) is trying to reap benefits out of the deaths of Hindu youth, it is the real anti-Hindu element,” alleged Mahendra Kumar, former Bajrang Dal leader. He was addressing a gathering at a session ‘Horalu Nota’ organized during the second day of ‘Jana Nudi’ literary conference organized at Shanti Kiran building in Bajjodi Nanthoor.

Speaking on the factors that led to his breaking ties with the Pro-Hindutva outfit which he headed, Mr Kumar said,” When a youth identified as Gokul from Shivamogga was brutally murdered, RSS and BJP leaders asked me to make use of Gokul’s murder issue for political gains, for which I refused,” he informed.

“The intention of RSS is to bring BJP to power. Therefore to achieve their goal, the RSS is utilizing innocent youth and compelling them to resolve to criminal activities. Hence, there is a need to protect the nation from the clutches of the RSS,” he warned.
