Focus on 'rising terror' in TN, Left 'intolerance' in RSS national meet

The RSS will pass a resolution against “lawlessness” in Kerala and West Bengal at their national executive meeting.

HYDERABAD: Alleging that the Left and the Trinamool Congress have unleashed political violence on its workers, the RSS will pass a resolution against “lawlessness” in Kerala and West Bengal, besides expressing serious concerns on “rising Islamist terrorism” in Tamil Nadu at its national executive meeting here.

“There will be two resolutions which will be passed in the meeting. The crucial one is growing intolerance in Kerala and West Bengal against political opponents by ruling parties in the two states. Scores of our workers and activists of the BJP have been killed and their properties destroyed in Kerala by the functionaries of Left outfits. This political violence is undemocratic and inhuman,” said RSS joint general secretary V Bhagayya.

Incidentally, the saffron outfit has been seeking to spread its footprints in the southern states, besides West Bengal. Opening a new front, the RSS singled out Tamil Nadu  where it said Islamist terrorism was wreaking havoc in areas bordering with Kerala.

“We have noted with concerns the rise of Islamist terrorism in Tamil Nadu. The state government needs to crack the whip against the Islamist terrorists on its land,” added Bhagayya.

“We have witnessed increasing violence against Hindus in West Bengal by the Trinamool Congress in the name of Muslim appeasement. On the excuse of Muharram, the state government deprived the Hindus of their religious rights. Police refused to register cases against Muslim criminals who killed and brutalised a Dalit minor,” the RSS leader said.

The meeting will also adopt a resolution on the “importance” of Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay’s philosophy of integral humanism.

The RSS meet will also brainstorm on the issue of caste discrimination. It claims to have done surveys in Telangana, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Karnataka as part of its attempts to help social harmony.

“The survey in Telangana found that all can enter temples in 431 out of 489 villages surveyed, while all have equal access to common water resources in 475 habitations and equal rights to crematoriums in 190,” said Bhagayya.

He sad 13,000 people, including upper-caste men, had taken part in the surveys. The RSS leader also said the social harmony programme had been conducted in 9,000 villages of Madhya Pradesh.
