Mysore/Mysuru: AICC Spokesperson Brijesh Kalappa wanted to know why
Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), which claims itself as patriots, did not take part in the country’s freedom struggle. He was speaking at the 136th Foundation Day of Indian National Congress (INC) which was celebrated as ‘Samarpan Diwas’ at the Congress Bhavan here on Monday.
Kalappa said of late, RSS leaders and activists say they were real children of Bharat. In fact, the RSS was founded in 1925 but none of its leaders or workers took part in freedom struggle. On the other hand, the Congress Party, which has a history of 136 years, took a lead in freedom struggle. A number of leaders sacrificed their lives for the cause of nation. People wanted to know why the RSS did not participate in freedom struggle, he added.
