Annual Report of RSS for the year 2022-23

This👇is the Annual Report of RSS for the year 2022-23.

M.Nageshwar Rao, IPS

1.0 What stands in this as well as in all the Annual Reports of RSS is the total absence of Financial Statements, Budget, Source of funds,  IT Returns filed, etc.

1.1 Who is funding the RSS and its activities?

1.2 If Indian citizens are making small contributions, where are the details? How are they making those contributions?

1.3 Their Central Government has made digital financial transactions almost compulsory. Since it is their Government's policy, is the RSS taking only contributions through banks or in digital mode?

1.4 Does RSS and its affiliates have FCRA permit to receive foreign contributions? If so, where are the details?

1.5 There are so many other questions relating to their secret, if not shady, financial dealings.

1.6 All these questions are equally applicable to RSS and also to all its affiliates and wings such as VHP, BMS, BKS, ABVP, etc, which they need to be answered.

2.0 The RSS gives an impression, though it cleverly avoids putting in writing anywhere, that it is a Hindu organisation and its ideology is  Hindutva. Most Hindu-minded Hindus agree that the following are some of the core/important Hindu issues that are debilitating Hindu religion and therefore have to be addressed on priority namely;
(i) #FreeTemples
(ii) #EqualRightsForHindus
(iii) #Ban_Polygamy
(iv) #Ban_Beef_Exports
(v) #Ban_Cow_Slaughter
(vi) #Stop_Minority_Appeasement
(vii) #Ban_FCRA

2.1 But the Annual Reports of RSS do not mention any activity of taking up any of the Hindu issues, what is the current status, etc.

2.2 A reading of the Annual Reports also reveal that the RSS does so many things except its primary work of addressing Hindu issues. It is like a student doing every activity except studying. Will any parent tolerate? Then why should Hindus not question the RSS on their inaction about these pressing Hindu issues?

Unveiling the "Real Majority" of India

Unveiling the "Real Majority": Divya Dwivedi’s Critique of the Hindu Majority Narrative * In contemporary Indian discourse, the notion of a "Hindu majority" is often taken as an unassailable fact, with official statistics frequently citing approximately 80% of India’s population as Hindu. This framing shapes political campaigns, cultural narratives, and even national identity. However, philosopher and professor at IIT Delhi, Divya Dwivedi, challenges this narrative in her provocative and incisive work, arguing that the "Hindu majority" is a constructed myth that obscures the true social composition of India. For Dwivedi, the "real majority" comprises the lower-caste communities—historically marginalized and oppressed under the caste system—who form the numerical and social backbone of the nation. Her critique, developed in collaboration with philosopher Shaj Mohan, offers a radical rethinking of Indian society, exposing the mechanisms of power t...

Raise of RSS-affiliated think tanks

Since 2014, the number of think tanks affiliated with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has significantly increased. India had 192 think tanks in 2014, which surged to 612 by 2021, reflecting a notable rise in nationalist-oriented institutions like the India Foundation and the Vivekananda International Foundation  This growth is part of a broader strategy to challenge leftist intellectual dominance and promote a "New India" ideology through policy research and public discourse. The main goals of RSS-affiliated think tanks include: Promoting Hindutva Ideology : They aim to spread the ideology of Hindutva to strengthen the Hindu community and uphold Indian culture and civilizational values Challenging Leftist Dominance : These think tanks seek to counter the intellectual hegemony of leftist ideologies in India, providing an alternative narrative in policy discourse Supporting Government Policies : They produce research and reports that s...

Casteist Indian Bankers: Caste Bias Still Haunts Indian Banking

The Problem: Caste discrimination continues to plague the Indian banking sector, limiting access to credit for millions of lower-caste citizens. Data Point: A study  found that Scheduled Tribes (STs) face a 5-7% lower loan approval rate compared to higher castes, even after controlling for socioeconomic factors. How it Works: Discrimination in Action: Lower-caste individuals often encounter: Higher rejection rates for loan applications. Smaller loan amounts compared to higher-caste applicants. Less favorable terms, such as higher interest rates and stricter collateral requirements. The "Depositors, Not Borrowers" Mindset: Banks often view lower-caste individuals primarily as depositors, not as creditworthy borrowers. The Impact: Limited Economic Mobility: Restricted access to credit hampers entrepreneurship, reduces income growth, and perpetuates poverty cycles within marginalized communities. Reliance on Informal Lenders: The lack of access to formal ba...
