RSS Chief Bhagwat: India is a Hindu Nation, No Permission Needed

• RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat declared India an eternal 'Hindu nation', stating it requires no constitutional or parliamentary approval.
• Bhagwat emphasized that India remains a Hindu nation as long as citizens respect Indian culture and consider it their motherland.
• He clarified that the term 'secular' was added to the Constitution's Preamble during the the 1976 Emergency, not in the original text.
• Bhagwat refuted the misconception of RSS being anti-Muslim, inviting people to observe their transparent activities at shakhas.
• The statement was made at a 'Shata Vyakhyana Mala' event in Kolkata, part of RSS's centenary celebrations, founded by Dr. Keshav Baliram Hedgewar in Nagpur in 1925.

Why It Matters: RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat asserts India is inherently a Hindu nation, independent of legal validation.
