Targeting anti-India forces for fuelling hatred in Manipur and attacking “cultural Marxists” and “woke elements” for their negative impact on India’s education and culture, Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat, in his annual address at the RSS headquarters in Nagpur on Tuesday, cautioned people to remain alert to “anti-India” sentiments. On Vijayadasami, which is also the RSS’ founding day, Mr. Bhagwat asked the people of India to vote for the “best available option”. In a veiled message, he asked people to “control their tongue” as their words incited hatred within the country.
“For many years, Meitei and Kuki communities have been living together in Manipur. How did the violence erupt all of a sudden? That is a border area of India. If conflict will erupt here, it will benefits external forces. Are external factors involved?” Mr. Bhagwat said.
