Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh Sarakaryavah Suresh (Bhaiyaji) Joshi said here on Friday that National Register of Citizens (NRC) enumeration should be carried in every State to identify infiltrators from neighbouring countries to check growing demographic imbalance and threat to country’s security.
“Such an exercise has become essential as some States have been overflowing with outsiders collaborating with anti-national forces and working against Hindus,” said Joshi.
Addressing a Press meet on the valedictory occasion of three-day Akhil Bharatiya Karyakari Mandal (ABKM) meeting of the RSS here, Joshi said the RSS is expecting a favourable verdict from court concerning Ram Janmabhoomi issue.
Joshi said the abolition of article 370 and 35A has made the situation conducive for the return of Hindus, who have been brutally thrown out of Jammu and Kashmir since 1990, to the valley.
“I hope the Hindus who have survived the brutalities will now return to their original roots,” he said.
To a question, he welcomed a Common Civil Code for the country and said this was one of the primary demands of the RSS. “Why should a country have different laws for its citizens,” he questioned.
He said the Government should implement such a code without any hesitation.
Expressing concern over ethnic cleansing Hindus in West Bengal, Joshi said this has to stop immediately. The silence of the West Bengal Government was somewhat surprising given the fact that Bengal had a history of peace and amity.
Joshi said that the RSS has been privy to massive support in rural India. “It has good organisational acceptance over one lakh villages of the county and still growing,” he said.
The enthusiasms of the people have been overwhelming. RSS sakhas are active in 60,000 locations of the country, he mentioned.
Determined to ameliorate the condition of villages, he said RSS has began taking up rural development work on a massive scale. “We are focusing on 18-35 age groups to carry the work to its logical target.
RSS Akhil Bharatiya Prachar Pramukh Arun Kumar and Saha Prachar Pramukh Narendra Thakur were also present, among others.
