DEBAUCHERY OF THE RASHTRIYA SWAYAMSEVAK SANGH TOP BRASS AS NARRATED BY INSIDER BALRAJ MADHOK

 

DEBAUCHERY OF THE RASHTRIYA SWAYAMSEVAK SANGH TOP BRASS AS NARRATED BY INSIDER BALRAJ MADHOK

Balraj Madhok's died on May 2, 2016 ending an era of old guards of Hindutva politics. A senior RSS pracharak till his death was paid handsome tributes by the RSS leaders including PM Modi, himself a senior pracharak, for being a "stalwart leader of Jan Sangh. Balraj Madhok ji's ideological commitment was strong & clarity of thought immense. He was selflessly devoted to the nation & society. I had the good fortune of interacting with Balraj Madhok ji on many occasions". The RSS also issued a formal condolence message signed by the Supremo Mohan Bhagwat on behalf of all swayamsevaks, referring to his contribution of commitment to nation and society. He was a leading RSS pracharak on whom his organization relied for initiating prominent Hindutva projects. But today nobody in the RSS-BJP top hierarchy remembers/talks about Madhok as he was an insider chronicler of the immense degeneration which was spreading as an epidemic in the high echelons of the RSS in 1970s and 80s. In fact, Modi’s control of RSS is the continuation of what was exposed by Madhok.

 

Balraj Madhok needs no introduction in Indian politics, espe­cially of the Hindutva variety. Born in 1920 in Gujranwala (now in Pakistan), he was closely associat­ed with the RSS, most of the times function­ing as a prominent organizer since 1942. As RSS pracharak he was the in-charge of Jammu & Kashmir State in pre-Partition days, the responsibility that he continued to hold till 1948 when he was ordered to leave the state by the Shiekh Abdullah Government. In Delhi, he edited the English organ of the RSS, Organizer, founded student organiza­tion of the RSS, ABVP, in 1948, and teamed up with Shyama Prasad Mukherji in establishing political wing of the RSS, Bharatiya Jana Sangh (BJS) in 1951. He held the cru­cial posts of All India Secretary of the BJS (1951-1965), presidentship of Delhi BJS (1954-1963) and all this culminated in his tak­ing over as President of All India BJS (1965­-1967). It was during his stewardship of All India BJS that the party made significant gains in the general elections of 1968 by reducing Congress in minority in many states. He was elected to the Lower House of the Indian Parliament, Lok Sabha, twice (1961 & 1967) from Delhi.

 

Madhok despite his busy life as politician was an indefatigable writer too, and is known for his controversial political writings. In fact, he was mainly responsible for articulat­ing the Hindutva’s ideological response to the problem of minorities specially Muslims by propounding the theory of ‘Indianization’ in 1969. Madhok also penned his autobiographical writings —Zindagi Ka Safar –1 and Zindagi Ka Safar–2, the first two volumes of his journey of life appeared in 1994. It is after 9 years that third volume in this series, Zindagi Ka Safar –3: Deendayal Upadhyay Ki Hatya Se Indira Gandhi Ki Hatya Tak (Journey of Life-3: From the Murder of Deendayal Upadhyay to the Murder of Indira Gandhi) was published in 2003. This volume is full of shocking inci­dents and explosive facts concerning RSS. The canvass of this part of the autobiography covered political happenings between 1968 and 1984, starting with the controversial murder of newly appoint­ed President of BJS, Deendayal Upadhyay and ending with the assassination of the Prime Minister of India, Indira Gandhi. It is true that issues and controversies raised in the 3^rdvolume of Madhok's autobiography were in public domain earlier also, but the first hand shocking facts pre­sented in this autobiography about the con­troversial death (which Madhok described as murder) of prominent leader, ideologue and thinker of RSS, Deendayal Upadhyay and the complicity of some of the then RSS cadres namely Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Nana Deshmukh led to a hell of a controversy demanding explanations from the concerned leaders. Madhok even held MS Golwalkar, the most prominent ideologue of RSS, the 2^nd Sarsanghchalak (Supremo) and the 3^rd sarsanghchalak of RSS, Balasaheb Deoras guilty of shielding the above referred duo in their misdemeanors. If Madhok's autobiography is to be believed then the RSS top brass had already reached its nadir of degeneration. The most significant aspect of this autobiography was that Balraj Madhok penned it as a living swayamsevak (pracharak).

 

While outlining the nature of his treat­ment of the incidents and facts in his autobi­ography, Madhok wrote in the foreword,

“In this 3^rd part of ‘Zindagee kaa Safar’ [The journey of life] I have tried to present the prominent incidents of this stormy era, my experiences and their influence on me, Jan Sangh and life of Nation with factual and objective narration and eval­uation. Being a student of history I have always kept in mind the universally accepted principle of history, ‘facts are sacred’ though there may be different interpretations.”

  MURDER OF DEENDAYAL UPADHYAY WAS SPONSORED BY TOP RSS FUNCTIONARIES

Madhok was of the firm view that Deendayal Upadhyay’s murder on February 1, 1968, was the harbinger and beginning of a vicious rising storm which derailed the Jana Sangh. Before unfolding the mystery of Upadhyay’s murder he raised few questions:

"Why was he murdered, who were the people involved in the conspiracy, what was their aim and goal behind this conspiracy all this is still shrouded in mystery. But all this will (surely) be unveiled as cir­cumstantial evidences about his murder are quite revealing.” (p. 14­-15)

 Madhok’s autobiography aimed atexposing the con­spiracy of Deendayal Upadhyay’s murder by unveiling facts one by one, thus becoming a crucial legal document also. While straightforwardly coming to the identity of the murderers of Deendayal Upadhyay he made the following significant statement:

"One thing is clear. Behind the murder of Deendayal Upadhyay was neither the hand of Communists nor of any thief...He was killed by a hired assassin. But conspirators who sponsored this killing were those self-seekers and leaders with a criminal bent of mind of Sangh-Jan Sangh." (p. 22)

 The autobiography went to tell of a concerted attempt by the killers to keep facts under wraps:

“Though those jealous self-seekers to whom the finger of suspicion points, in conspiring the murder of Deendayal Upadhyay, are benefitting by his name, but do not want truth of his murder to come out. However, as a student of history I believe that the blood of Deendayal Upadhyay will be avenged, history will do justice to him and those who conspired to kill him will be sub­jected to a curse.” (p. 15)

 This autobiography written by a swayamsevak who was at the top in the RSS hierarchy was absolutely non-hesitant in pointing fingers towards Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Nana Deshmukh as main conspirators in the murder of Deendayal Upadhyay, the president of BJS. He categorically stated: “Information gathered from difference sources points the fingers of suspicion in the murder of Deendayal Upadhyay towards them.” (p. 23)

 According to the autobiography, Deendayal Upadhyay was assassinated by those who were kept out of leading positions of the BJS by Deendayal Upadhyay as president. It is to be noted here that Deendayal Upadhyay after taking over presidentship of BJS from BalrajMadhok in December 1967, had kept out both Atal Behari Vajpayee and Nana Deshmukh from important posts. According to Madhok, Upadhyay was murdered because,

“he was constantly striving that ill-reputed people should get no promotion in BJS, so that reputation of the organisation is not tar­nished. For this reason some characterless self-seeking people were finding him a stum­bling block in their path of self-seeking fulfillment.” (p. 14)

 JANSANGH HEADQUARERS WAS A DEN OF VICE

Who these characterless self-seekers were, Madhok minced no words in telling their names. According to the autobiography, even Madhok was familiar with them as President of BJS. According to him:

“Some time back when I was the President of Jana Sangh, Jagdish Prasad Mathur, in-charge of the Central Office, who was staying with Atal Behari at 30, Rajendra Prasad Road, had complained to me that Atal had turned that house into a den of immoral activities. Every day new girls were coming there. Things were getting out of hand. So as a senior leader of Jana Sangh I have dared to bring to your notice this fact. I had some information about character of Atal, but the situation had deteriorated so much, I did not know. I called Atal to my residence and in a closed room inquired from him about matters raised by Jagdish Prasad Mathur. The explanation he offered further proved the facts conveyed by Jagdish Prasad Mathur. Then I suggested to him that he should get married, otherwise, he was bound to get a bad name, and the reputation of Jan Sangh was also bound to suffer.” (p. 25)

 GOLWALKAR AS SARSANGHCHALAK SUPPORTED THE LEADERS WITH CRIMINAL MIND-SET

As a close and keen observer of devel­opments in BJS in the immediate post Deendayal Upadhyay period he was astonished to find that a dominant section of the RSS lead­ership was bent upon making Atal Behari Vajpayee President of BJS. This was hap­pening despite the fact that Madhok did bring all these facts to the notice of the then sarsanghchalak of RSS, MS Golwalkar. According to the account given in the autobi­ography the meeting took place in Delhi in early 1970.

“After listening to my talk he [Golwalkar] kept quiet for some time and then said — ‘I know of the weaknesses of the character of these people. But I have to run an organization. I have to take everybody together, so like Shiva I drink poison every day.’

And then he advised me that being a senior member of the organization I should also do the same and try to take everybody along. He specially referred the name of Nana Deshmukh and suggested that I should take him into confidence and collaborate with him. After listening him I had the inkling of not only of his mental anguish but also his helplessness in controlling the situation.” (pp. 62-63)

 The autobiography went on to relate developments which only replicated some Mughal court intrigues.

"It has been the tradition of Jana Sangh that if the president expires before completing his term, senior vice-president is given the responsibility for the rest of the term. So I thought that Shri Pitamber Das or Principal Dev Prasad Ghosh will be given this respon­sibility. Atal Behari Vajpayee was nowhere in the reckoning (Atal Behari Vajpayee kisi ginti maen nahin thaa). I was stunned when informed that Sangh leaders wanted to make Atal Behari Vajpayee President.

“Immediately after becoming President he removed Jagannath Joshi from the impor­tant post of organization in-charge (sangath­an mantri) and appointed Nana Deshmukh to this post. Thus two persons, who got immedi­ate benefit from the murder of Shri Upadhyay, were those about whom Shri Upadhyay dur­ing the tenures of his General Secretaryship and Presidentship had adopted a conscious policy of keeping away from important posts.”(pp. 16-17)

 HOW RSS TOP BRASS COLLUDED WITH POLICE IN SUPPRESSING TRUTH ABOUT MURDER

Balraj Madhok in his autobiography made serious allegations against Atal Behari Vajpayee and Nana Deshmukh for thwarting any investigation about the real murderer/s of Deendayal Upadhyay. According to him whatever public posture RSS might have taken about Upadhyay’s death, Atal Behari Vajpayee treated it as a simple an accident. When Madhok entered into a debate with Atal Behari Vajpayee on this issue, the latter retorted in the following words, as quoted in the autobiography; “Deendayal was a hot-headed (jhagraloo) person, might have picked a fight with someone in the train and in the scuffle got pushed out and died, do not call it murder.” (p. 16)

 Madhok also went on to narrate in details how both Atal Behari Vajpayee and Nana Deshmukh tried to mislead Chanderchud Commission of Enquiry which was constituted to find the truth about Upadhyay’s death.

“When Chandrachud Commission started the enquiry I was informed that BJS President (Atal Behari Vajpayee) has given the whole responsibility of presenting Jan Sangh’s case before the Commission to Nana Deshmukh so from Jan Sangh side only those would appear as witnesses who have been cleared (picked) by Nana Deshmukh and without his permission no other member of Jan Sangh should go to appear as witness. I was expecting that I will surely be presented before the Commission but I did not figure in the list of witnesses presented by Nana Deshmukh...In such a situation Chandrachud Commission failed in unraveling the mystery of this murder. The attitude which was adopted by Atal Behari Vajpayee and Nana Deshmukh in relation to the enquiry commission and the kind of witnesses presented can only draw this conclusion that instead of unveiling the truth they were interested in a cover up.” (p 19)

 DIRECT BENEFICIARIES WITH IN RSS OF MURDER OF DEENDAYAL UPADHYAY

Madhok also found the hand of Balasaheb Deoras, who became sarsanghchalak of RSS after M S Golwalkar, in the murder of Deendayal Upadhyay. According to him,

“After becoming the president of BJS the stature of Shri Deendayal Upadhyay grew further. Then the possibility that he might become the next sarsanghchalak of RSS used to be expressed. This possibility was unacceptable to some of the self-seeking Sangh people, specially Balasaheb Deoras. They started feeling that due to Deendayal their chances of further advancement might be jeopardized. Possibly, this is the reason that after the murder of Deendayal, he not only took direct interest in making Atal Behari Vajpayee President of Jana Sangh but also helped in covering up the murder of Deendayal. He wanted me to stop talking about it as a murder and describe it as an accident like him. But I was notready to hide a fact witnessed by my own eyes and verified.” (p. 21)

 HOW SANGH SARSANGHCHALAK BALA SAHEB DEORAS BETRAYED ANTI-EMERGENCY STRUGGLE

This autobiography also highlighted the degenerated personal and political life of Balasaheb Deoras. Referring to the Emergency days of 1975, it goes on to tell that,

“Sarsanghchalak of the Sangh, Shri Bala Saheb Deoras was held under MISA. In contrast to the life of struggle and idealism of Shri Golwalkar, he was fond of good living. That is the reason that he wrote two letters on August 22, 1975 and November 10, 1975 to Indira Gandhi for reconsidering her attitude towards the Sangh and lifting the ban from it. He also wrote a letter to Shri Vinoba Bhave requesting him to try to remove from Indira Gandhi’s heart anti [Sangh] feelings." (p. 188-189)

 MADHOK PENALIZED FOR SPEAKING TRUTH: LK ADVANI USED AS A PUPPET

According to the autobiography, Atal Behari Vajpayee and company continued to make all kinds of efforts to finish off his political career. They even succeeded in expelling him from the primary membership of BJS in 1973. Madhok was bitter about L. K. Advani who allowed him to be a puppet in this vicious game. Madhok wrote that his expulsion was

“an immoral, unconstitutional and criminal act. In this Sarkaryavah of the Sangh, Balasaheb Deoras, and some other parcharaks including Madho Rao Mulay and organising secretaries played a prominent role. They used Atal as a shield and Advani as a puppet.” (p. 144)

 Madhok reserved special mention for ‘Iron Man’ of Hindutva, LK Advani.

“The position of Lal Krishan Advani was like a puppet. He was not qualified for the post [presidentship of BJS] which was given to him after discarding many senior workers. I knew through my personal experience that he is a boneless wonder. He has neither personal integrity nor opinion. But he is lucky. The office which he had got due to the prasad or offerings of Vajpayee and officials of RSS, keeping aside its honour, he acted as a bonded labourer, for any work assigned to him.” (p. 146)

 This autobiography is significant in many respects. Firstly, if there is even an iota of truth in the charges levelled by Balraj Madhok, who was no small fry and a leading light of the Hindutva brigade then how safe is India in the hands of the present ruling clique can very well be guessed. These are serious allegations and need national investigation.

 If these were lies then it needed to be shared with the nation and Balraj Madhok needed to be booked for defamation. Secondly, it was not for the first time that serious allegations of indulgence in criminal activities by important individuals/organisations of the Hindutva camp surfaced. The Gujarat carnage showed that leaders with criminal bent of minds were leading the ruling party. This autobiography traces the roots of this criminalization, dehumanization and degeneration. Thirdly, this autobiography once again proved that Hindutva is no Parivar or family with a healthy mind and body. It is a ruthless gang of power seekers which can go to any length for its kill. Like any fascist set up it is packed with people who specialize in treachery, debauchery and self-destruction. Today’s India is a living testimony of this sad reality.

On 78th Martyrdom Anniversary of MK Gandhi: THE ASSASSINS OF GANDHIJI IDENTIFIED BY SARDAR PATEL

 

On 78^th Martyrdom Anniversary of MK Gandhi

THE ASSASSINS OF GANDHIJI IDENTIFIED BY SARDAR PATEL

THE INHERITORS OF THE IDEOLOGY OF THE ASSASSINS RULE INDIA TODAY!

The world is mourning the 78rd anniversary of MK Gandhi's assassination by the Hindutva terrorists on January 30, 1948. RSS, the most prominent flag-bearer of the Hindutva politics and cadres of which rule India today react angrily whenever the truth is spoken or written that the terrorists who assassinated Gandhiji were not only shared the ideological world-view of Hindu Mahasabha (led by VD Savarkar) and RSS brand of Hindu nationalism but were also connected with these. Instead of being ashamed of such a heinous crime it resorts to lies ably expressed in the proverb; the pot calling the kettle black!

Let us compare the RSS claim of innocence in Gandhiji's assassination with the views of the first home minister and deputy PM of India, Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel on the perpetrators of this crime. It needs no reminding that Sardar continues to be a favourite of the RSS and the present PM Modi who got his statue in Gujarat, the tallest in the world. He never thought of such a statue for Gandhiji. It will be interesting to know that our PM, an 'atm-nirbhar Bharat' (self-relying India) Messiah who never misses to utter prophetic words like Make in India, got it moulded in an iron-foundry of China!

In the following is the compilation in chronological order the communications of Sardar Patel's home ministry, his letters to Jawaharlal Nehru, Syama Prasad Mookerjee (the then head of Hindu Mahasabha) and MS Golwalkar (the then Supremo of the RSS) on Gandhiji's assassination. THIS CHRONOLOGICAL PRESENTATION CLEARLY SHOWS HOW SARDAR PATEL DEVELOPED HIS UNDERSTANDING (WHICH MUST HAVE BEEN BASED ON FACTS SUPPLIED BY HIS OFFICIALS) OF THE ROLE OF THE ORGANIZATIONS INVOLVED IN GANDHIJI'S ASSASSINATION.

(1) 4TH FEBRUARY 1948 GOVERNMENT COMMUNIQUÉ BANNING RSS

The order of banning RSS issued by the Sardar's ministry was unequivocal in holding the former responsible for terror activities. It read:

"Undesirable and even dangerous activities have been carried on by members of the Sangh. It has been found that in several parts of the country individual members of the RSS have indulged in acts of violence involving arson, robbery, dacoity, and murder and have collected illicit arms and ammunition. They have been found circulating leaflets exhorting people to resort to terrorist methods, to collect firearms, to create disaffection against the government and suborn the police and the military."

[Cited in Justice on Trial, RSS, Bangalore, 1962, pp. 65-66.]

(2) SARDAR PATEL LETTER TO NEHRU: FEBRUARY 27, 1948

In the early days of investigation when all facts were not known Sardar told Nehru:

"All the main accused have given long and detailed statements of their activities. In one case, the statement extends to ninety typed pages. From their statements, it is quite clear that no part of the conspiracy took place in Delhi...It also clearly emerges from these statements that the RSS was not involved at all. It was a fanatical wing of the Hindu Mahasabha directly under Savarkar that (hatched) the conspiracy and saw it through. It also appears that the conspiracy was limited to some ten men, of whom all except two have been got hold of.” [Italics for emphasis]

The RSS and its supporters quote a part of the above letter which read: "It also clearly emerges from these statements that the RSS was not involved at all" but hides the following text of the same letter which is very significant. The letter continues:

"In the case of secret organization like the RSS which has no records, registers, etc. securing of authentic information whether a particular individual is active worker or not is rendered a very difficult task."

[Shankar, V., Sardar Patel: Select Correspondence 1945-50, Navjivan Publishing House, Ahmedabad, 1977, p. 283-85.]

HOW TO IDENTIFY A MEMBER Of THE RSS?

Sardar Patel raised a highly significant question about knowing whether a criminal or terrorist is a member of RSS or not. Whenever a linkage between a criminal activity and RSS is exposed, the latter comes out with the patent answer that the criminal is not RSS member. How do we know it? Is there an authenticated list of RSS members which can be perused for such an investigation by the State? If it is not there, how RSS can file cases against those who find RSS members indulging in the assassinations and terrorist activities.  In such cases the police and judiciary should demand from RSS proof that such persons were not its members.

(3) SARDAR PATEL LETTER TO SYAMA PRASAD MOOKERJEE: JULY 18, 1948

As investigation progressed Sardar found that Hindu Mahasabha and RSS were jointly responsible for the murder of Gandhiji which was corroborated by him in a letter to a prominent leader of Hindu Mahasabha, Syama Prasad Mookerjee. On July 18, 1948 Sardar wrote:

"As regards the RSS and the Hindu Mahasabha, the case relating to Gandhiji’s murder is sub judice and I should not like to say anything about the participation of the two organizations, but our reports do confirm that, as a result of the activities of these two bodies, particularly the former, an atmosphere was created in the country in which such a ghastly tragedy became possible. There is no doubt in my mind that the extreme section of the Hindu Mahasabha was involved in the conspiracy. The activities of the RSS constituted a clear threat to the existence of Government and the State. Our reports show that those activities, despite the ban, have not died down. Indeed, as time has marched on, the RSS circles are becoming more defiant and are indulging in their subversive activities in an increasing measure. "

[Letter 64 in Sardar Patel: Select Correspondence1945-1950, volume 2, Navjivan Publishing House, Ahmedabad, 1977, pp. 276-77.]

 

(4) SARDAR PATEL LETTER TO GOLWALKAR: 19 SEPTEMBER 1948

By September 19 (1948), exactly 214 days after the murder of Gandhiji when Sardar wrote this letter, the role of the organizations in the assassination of Gandhiji was clearer to him. Without mincing words, he told Golwalkar:

"Organizing the Hindus and helping them is one thing but going in for revenge for its sufferings on innocent and helpless men, women and children is quite another thing…Apart from this, their opposition to the Congress, that too of such virulence, disregarding all considerations of personality, decency or decorum, created a kind of unrest among the people. All their speeches were full of communal poison. It was not necessary to spread poison in order to enthuse the Hindus and organize for their protection. As a final result of the poison, the country had to suffer the sacrifice of the invaluable life of Gandhiji. Even an iota of the sympathy of the Government, or of the people, no more remained for the RSS. In fact opposition grew. Opposition turned more severe, when the RSS men expressed joy and distributed sweets after Gandhiji’s death. Under these conditions it became inevitable for the Government to take action against the RSS…Since then, over six months have elapsed. We had hoped that after this lapse of time, with full and proper consideration the RSS persons would come to the right path." But from the reports that come to me, it is evident that attempts to put fresh life into their same old activities are afoot."

[Cited in Justice on Trial, RSS, Bangalore, 1962, pp. 26-28.]

 

Do we need more proof to prove the RSS involvement in the murder of Gandhiji?

Another contemporary, a senior ICS (predecessor of IAS) who was the first home secretary of Uttar Pradesh corroborated the fact that RSS was involved in this anti-national heinous crime. According to him:

"Came January 30, 1948 when the Mahatma, that supreme apostle of peace, felt to a bullet fired by an RSS fanatic. The tragic episode left me sick at heart."

[Rajeshwar Dayal, A Life of Our Times, Orient Longman, 94.]

HATRED FOR GANDHIJI IS A FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENT OF THE HINDUTVA-RSS DISCOURSE

The RSS’ hatred for Gandhi is as old as the formation of the RSS itself. Dr K.B. Hedgewar, the founder of the RSS, was a Congress leader but parted company with the latter in 1925. After meeting the Hindutva icon V.D. Savarkar, he realized that Gandhi was the biggest hurdle in the Hindutva project of organizing Hindus separately. According to an RSS publication, since Gandhi worked for Hindu-Muslim unity,

“Doctorji sensed danger in that move. In fact, he did not even relish the new-fangled slogan of ‘Hindu-Muslim unity”. Another RSS publication corroborates the fact that the main reason behind Hedgewar’s parting with the Congress and formation of the RSS was because the “Congress believed in Hindu-Muslim unity”.

[Seshadri, H.V. (ed.), Dr Hedgewar, the Epoch-Maker: A Biography, p. 61. & Pingle, H.V. (ed.), Smritikan: Parm Pujiye Dr Hedgewar ke Jeevan kee Vibhinn Ghatnaon kaa Sankalan, p. 93.]

The RSS launched its English organ, Organiser, in July 1947 and a perusal of its issues till the murder of Gandhi on January 30, 1948 shows a flood of articles and sketches full of hatred for Gandhiji. The RSS seemed to be competing with the Hindu Mahasabha leader, Savarkar, and the Muslim League English organ, The Dawn, in denigrating Gandhi.

MODI AS CM OF GUJARAT SENT CONGRATULATORY MESSAGE TO JANJAGRUTI HINDU SAMITI GOA CONFERENCE FOR TURNING INDIA INTO A HINDU STATE WHICH CELEBERATED ‘VADH’ KILLING OF GANDHIJI.

Modi was in Goa in June 2013 for the BJP executive committee meeting. He as Gujarat CM sent a message to the ‘All India Hindu Convention for Establishment of Hindu Nation’ organized by the Hindu Janajagruti Samiti (HJS) at Goa from June 7^TH. Modi's message lauding the conference for establishing a Hindu nation read:

“It is our tradition to remain alert and raise a voice against persecution…Only by protecting our culture, can the flag of 'dharma' and unity be kept intact. Organizations inspired by nationalism, patriotism and devotion for the Nation are true manifestations of people's power.” [ORIGINAL LETTER REPRODUCED AT THE END]

On the 3^rd day from the same podium in this convention from where Modi's felicitation message was read, one of the prominent speakers, K.V. Sitaramiah, a seasoned RSS cadre declared that Gandhi was 'terrible, wicked and most sinful'. Rejoicing the killing of M.K. Gandhi, he went on to declare,

“As Bhagwan Shri Krishna said in the Gita, Paritranaya SadhunamVinashaya Cha Dushkritam/ DharamasansthapnayaSambhavamiYuge-Yuge (For the protection of the good, for the destruction of the wicked and for the establishment of righteousness, I am born in every age) On…30th January 1948 evening, Shriram came in the form of Nathuram Godse and ended the life of Gandhi.” [ORIGINAL DOCUMENT REPRODUCED AT THE END]

It is to be noted that K.V. Sitaramaiah has also authored two books titled ‘Gandhi was Dharma Drohi [anti-religion] and Desa Drohi [anti-religion]’ and ‘Gandhi was Murderer of Gandhi’ in which the back cover text of the first book, quoting from the epic Mahabharat, demands "Dharma Drohis must be killed", "Not killing the deserved to be killed is great sin" and "where the members of Parliament seeing clearly allow to kill Dharma & truth as untruth, those members will be called dead".

It is death-knell for the destiny of a democratic-secular India which was established to fulfill dreams of Gandhiji that India is being ruled by a sectarian group which was born out of hatred for him, played leading role in the assassination of Gandhiji and continues to celebrate his 'vadh'; sacrifice done for a good cause. Let us take a firm vow on the 78^th martyrdom anniversary of Gandhiji that all of us will rise up to challenge the Hindutva juggernaut.

DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE

₌

Before Gandhi's assassination, Hindutva organizations, in their publications, especially through cartoons, portrayed him as anti-Hindu and a stooge of Muslims. This created an atmosphere of hatred and violence against him, a fact Sardar Patel also mentioned in his letter mentioned above. Some examples of these cartoons:
