“Union Home Minister Amit Shah was there for three days. Who actually fuelled the conflict? It [violence] is not happening, it is being made to happen,” Bhagwat said. The RSS chief said he was proud of the Sangh workers who worked in Manipur to restore peace. Bhagwat cautioned against attempts to garner votes by inflaming emotions ahead of 2024 general elections. He asked people to vote keeping in mind unity, integrity, identity and development of the country.
‘Cultural Marxists, woke using media’
Mohan Bhagwat
RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat said cultural Marxists and woke elements are using their influence in media and academia to spoil the country’s education and culture.
These destructive forces call themselves “woke” and claim to be working for some lofty goals, but their real goals are to disrupt orderliness in the world, he said.
“These selfish, discriminatory and deceitful forces seeking their sectarian interests are making efforts to disrupt social cohesion and promote conflict. They wear various cloaks,” he said.
