Sangh has been targetted since last 90 yrs: RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat

Nagpur, Oct 21 (UNI) RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat, who was among the early ones to cast his vote on Monday for the Maharashtra Assembly polls, said the Sangh has been targeted for the last 90 years but there is no need to worry as the society is one and will always be one.

After exercising his franchise, the RSS chief said, "We have been targeted since last 90 years. However, there is no need to worry as the society is one and will always be one. It is politics, all this is part of it.'

Mr Bhagwat's remark came in response to reporters asking him about the Congress targeting the RSS over the Bharat Ratna demand for Hindutva ideologue V D Savarkar. Bhagwat, however, dubbed it as "politics".

When asked what will be the result of the ongoing state polls, the RSS chief said, "I can't presume as I am not a political figure. The results will be out on October 24 and everyone will get to know."

He also urged people to come out and vote, saying it's the responsibility of citizens to elect their public representatives.
