After Bhagwat’s ‘true independence’ remarks, NSUI calls for ban on RSS
Members of the Congress’s student wing, the National Students’ Union of India (NSUI), staged a protest in New Delhi on Wednesday, demanding a ban on the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and action against its chief, Mohan Bhagwat, following his remarks about Independence. The protest was sparked by Bhagwat’s recent statement, in which he claimed that India only achieved true independence with the consecration of the Ayodhya Ram Mandir in 2024.
Led by NSUI national president Varun Choudhary, demonstrators marched towards the residence of Home Minister Amit Shah, denouncing Bhagwat’s comments as “anti-national”.
Speaking to mediapersons, Choudhary demanded immediate action against Bhagwat, stating, “Mohan Bhagwat’s statement is an outright anti-national remark. Such rhetoric threatens the unity and integrity of our nation. I demand an immediate ban on the RSS and the arrest of Bhagwat.”
