RSS and BJP: Boon or Curse (Hardbound-2023)

About the Book

The book exhaustively deals with the general belief that RSS and BJP&—are against Muslims and Christians; want to set up Hindu Rashtra; propagate Hindutva; want to change the Constitution; are not in favour of tri-colour National Flag; are responsible for Hindu-Muslim riots; and believe in Fascism of Hitler and Mussolini. All these aspects have been exhaustively discussed taking extracts from relevant published literatures authored by the persons associated with the RSS and BJP, or who have seen the rise of RSS and BJP very closely from the grassroot levels. The book discusses the rise of RSS and BJP, their philosophes, high and low in their journey, and the role of people who have put the seeds of these organizations, along with the remarks and behaviour of non-RSS and non-BJP leaders towards these organizations. The book studies how the seed of RSS was put in Nagpur by Hedgewar which became a big tree covering whole India. Next, it deals with the constitution of RSS and its working philosophy. It also studies the remarks of Congress and Mahatma Gandhi on RSS and the RSS concept of Hindu Rashtra and the Congress concept of secularism. Birth and rise of Jana Sangh have been studied along with the birth of BJP from its parent organization Jana Sangh and its Phoenix-like rise in the political ecosystem of India.
