Country belongs to Hindus: Mohan Bhagwat


Bareilly (Uttar Pradesh), Jan 19 (IANS): Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat said on Sunday that when RSS workers say that this country belongs to Hindus, they imply that 130 crore people in the country are Hindus.

"By saying that all are Hindus, we do not want to change anyone's religion, language or caste... We do not want any power centre other than the Constitution because we believe in it. Hindutva is a holistic approach and we believe that the ancestors of all were Hindus. This is unity in diversity and is marked by emotional integrity," he said while speaking at a function in Bareilly on Sunday.

Bhagwat said that the country was run by the Constitution which envisages a bright future for the nation.

"If you read the Constitution, you will realize that every page is an inspiration for the country. The Constitution tells us our beginning and our goals," he said.

He said that we need to learn from Israel which has fought for its freedom and is one of the leading countries in the world today.

The RSS chief also clarified the confusion over his statement on population control and said, "I only said that population is a problem as well as resource, so a policy should be drafted in this regard. The policy will decide how many children one should have. I did not lay down any rule as such because it is not my job."

    Everyone born in India, or born to Indian parents is an Indian. If you disagree, you are anti-Indian, Anti-national.

    India belongs to each and every one who is born here as an Indian. Mohan Bhagwat or anyone else is not the owner of our country. It belongs as much to the Hindus as it belongs to the Muslims or Christians or any other community.

    He and his brigade should be placed at the boarder rather than stirring un necessary mental attitude in the society. RSS seems to be crossing all the limits.

    Who says and where it is mentioned that the country belongs only to Hindus.
    Then what about other minorities. India is a secular/democratic Republic.

    Flavian, why are you getting agitated by a statement from a 'nobody'. Is he a PM or CM, or Panchayath president?
    India belongs to me as much as it belongs to you.

    Evolution says that our ancestors were apes. History tell us that our ancestors came and settled in the subcontinent from Central Asia much before Hinduism. All of us including hindus follow Indian culture and traditions. Therefore he is talking only nonsense. India belongs to Indians of which hindus, muslims, Christians, Sikhs, Buddhists, jains, parsis, tribals, atheists,agnostics etc etc are all part of. .

    This Mohana Bhagawatha earlier told and I quote - "Everyone who lives in India is Hindu by identity, says RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat ... Hindustan Times, New Delhi ... "

    The emphasising word is -"Everyone who lives in Hindustan is Hindu by identity..., means Brahmins, Dalit's, Christians, Chaiwala's, pappu's, dongi's, Jokara's, chowkidaar's, Muslims, Sikh's etc., are Hindu's by virtue of this above statement...,

    With this background - One can safely conclude that Hindustan belongs to Muslims, Christians, Pappu's, chaiwala's, chowkidaar's etc., as much as Hindu's (which may probably include Beef Eating Hindu's of God's own country)...,

    Let me have my chai - before i could read any response from Jokara's....!!!

    jh
    jai hind..,
