"Hindu religion not registered": Mohan Bhagwat responds to Priyank Kharge's letter | Capital Beat

Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat on June 16 said he would "not respond" to Karnataka’s Home Minister Priyank Kharge's open letter urging the organisation to register itself and disclose its financial and other details. Calling the demand "politics" and a "gimmick," Bhagwat asserted that the RSS operates openly and is not secretive. He argued that many institutions, including the Hindu religion itself, are not registered and that registration is only necessary for entities seeking government funds. Citing the RSS's long history and its written constitution submitted to the government in the 1950s, Bhagwat maintained that the organisation is already recognised by the state. But will Priyank Kharge push for legal action against the RSS? And does the controversy raise fresh questions about transparency and accountability within the organisation? #RSS #MohanBhagwat #PriyankKharge #KarnatakaPolitics #RSSControversy #Transparency #Accountability #IndianPolitics #SanghParivar #PoliticalDebate #Governance #NewsUpdate --- ▶For the latest news and analysis - https://thefederal.com/  ▶RSS Feed - https://thefederal.com/google_feeds.xml ▶For more explainers, and interesting videos - https://thefederal.com/category/videos ▶To watch The Federal's shows listed together for your easy access, click here:    • The Federal Programmes   Follow The Federal News here - ▶Website: https://thefederal.com/ ▶Facebook:   / thefederal.india   ▶X: https://x.com/TheFederal_News ▶Instagram:   / thefederal_india   ▶LinkedIn:   / thefederal   ▶Whatsapp channel: https://www.whatsapp.com/channel/0029... ▶Threads: TheFederal India (@thefederal_india) ▶Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3fy3utP... #TheFederal #India #BreakingNews #LatestNews #News #Delhi #Mumbai #Parliament #NarendraModi #RahulGandhi #Politics #Business #Economy Download The Federal App here - ▶Android - http://bit.ly/3DJSkiu ▶iPhone - http://bit.ly/TheFederalios
