'People In Pakistan Not Happy, Believe Partition Was A Mistake': RSS Chief 

"I do not mean to say Bharat should attack Pakistan. Not at all. We don't belong to that culture that calls for attack on others," Bhagwat further said.

Bhagwat also said that India did not belong to a culture that calls for attacks on others.

Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat on Friday claimed that people in Pakistan are not happy and believe that partition was a "mistake". 

Speaking at a function to mark the birth anniversary of teen revolutionary Hemu Kalani, which was attended by Sindhis from different parts of the country, Bhagwat said, "It was Bharat before 1947 (Partition). Are those who broke off from Bharat due to their stubbornness happy still? There is pain out there," Bhagwat said in an apparent reference to Pakistan, as reported by PTI.

"People of Pakistan are now saying the division of Bharat was a mistake. All are saying it was a mistake," the RSS chief further said.

During the event, Bhagwat also underlined the need to build a new India and said, "Akhand Bharat (a concept of the country with all its ancient parts that are currently in modern-day Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Tibet unified) is true but divided Bharat was a nightmare."

However, he was quick to remind that India did not belong to a culture that calls for attacks on others.

"I do not mean to say Bharat should attack Pakistan. Not at all. We don't belong to that culture that calls for attack on others," he said, as reported by PTI

"We are from the culture that gives a befitting reply in self-defence," Bhagwat further said, in what seemed like a reference to the surgical strikes conducted by India on terror camps in Pakistan.

Hailing the Sindhi community, most of who arrived here during Partition, Bhagwat said they had come "from that Bharat to this Bharat for the sake of your rich Sindhu culture and values," reported news agency PTI.
