Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh chief Mohan Bhagwat said on Tuesday that cultural Marxists and woke elements are using their influence in media and academia to spoil the country’s education and culture. Bhagwat was addressing the RSS Dussehra rally in Nagpur. He said cultural Marxists and woke elements promote chaos and corruption. The RSS chief further said that with their influence in the media, academia, and other sectors, they seek to disrupt societal orderliness, morality, culture, dignity, and restraint.

Speaking on the Manipur violence, Bhagwat said that it was orchestrated and blamed “outside forces” for the situation in the north-eastern state. “It is a border state and Meiteis and Kukis were living together for a long time there. Who benefits from such secessionism and internal conflict? Outside forces also benefit. Were people from outside involved in what happened there,” Bhagwat asked. During the rally, the RSS chief said the idol of Lord Ram will be installed at Ayodhya temple on January 22, and asked people to organise programmes at temples across the country to celebrate.

Violence Not Happening, It Is Being Made To Happen: Bhagwat On Manipur Situation

Mohan Bhagwat said that violence in Manipur is not happening, it is being made to happen. He further asked who actually fueled the conflict. He said that when the restoration is in sight in the northeastern state, some incidents occur, which widens the gap between the communities.

On the Manipur situation, Bhagwat said, "Union Home Minister Amit Shah was in Manipur for three days. Who actually fueled the conflict? It (violence) is not happening, it is being made to happen," as quoted by the news agency PTI. "Which foreign powers may be interested in taking advantage of unrest and instability in Manipur? Does the geopolitics of south east Asia also have a role in these events," he asked.

“When peace restoration is in sight, some incident occurs. It widens the gap between the communities. Who is behind the people who were doing such acts? Who is instigating the violence?” he asked. The RSS chief also said that he was proud of the Sangh workers who worked in Manipur to restore peace. Bhagwat cautioned against attempts to garner votes by inflaming emotions ahead of 2024 general elections. He asked people to vote keeping in mind unity, integrity, identity and development of the country.
