00:05Shifting focus to the political arena once again after Congress.
00:09It's the AIMIM that slammed the RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat and after the RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat said
00:13if any Hindu thinks that there should be no Muslim in Bharat, he will not remain Hindu.
00:18AIMIM chief Asaduddin OSE says this is the oldest trick in the RSS playbook.
00:23Some words are for the world and some are for its own members.
00:27The RSS has never disavowed its key thinkers and writers.
00:31What do they say about Muslims and other minorities?
00:33One, it is well known that the RSS did not contribute to our freedom struggle.
00:37Its founder, Hegriwar, was in the Indian National Congress but left it because he was against all religious communities
00:44joining the anti-British freedom struggle led by Gandhi.
00:48Two, the RSS opposes democracy and has consistently demanded a dictatorship.
00:54Golwalkar in 1940 declared RSS inspired by one flag, one leader and one ideology.
01:00Number three, should we forget what happened to the Muslims of Gujarat under the RSS' proxy rule?
01:06Daughters were gang raped in front of their fathers and then had their heads bashed in.
01:10Their fathers were doused with petrol and set on fire.
01:14Their property was looted, their businesses were destroyed and this police stood by and did nothing.
01:19This and for number four, for the RSS, Indian Muslims and Christians are internal threats.
01:25Number one and two respectively that is.
01:28These are just viewers, some of the points that's been made by OSE in that post that he's come about.
01:33Remember this has become a big debate at this given point ever since.
01:36Mohan Bhagwat in fact made these very comments at the very event that he was addressing at Madison Square in
01:45New York City
01:46during his visit on 29th of August, that is just yesterday.
01:50In fact, as we speak, take a look as to what exactly was said by Mohan Bhagwat
01:55which has in fact created this controversy and debate with the opposition members slamming the very remarks.
02:19Now, we have some say in our own suicide.
02:25In spite of that baggage, we can tell him, set your baggage off.
02:30We have to live together.
02:36I actually told this, in 2018, in Delhi, I had a lecture session and Muslim brothers were also there and
02:47they asked me a question.
02:49You are a Hindu organization, you say Hindu rata, what about us Muslims?
02:56Would you drive us out?
03:00I said, no, that is not Hindu.
03:03If any Hindu thinks that there should be no Muslim in Bharat, he will not be Hindu.
03:14If you want to call yourself Hindu, you must believe that all paths are leading to the same.
03:31Now, let's take you through some of the key takeaways from this particular address delivered by the RSS chief at
03:41the Madison Square in New York City.
03:43Seven of those big things that he said that really comes out as crucial takeaways.
03:50Hindu Rashtra.
03:51Firstly, Hindu Rashtra does not mean driving Muslims out of India.
03:55It means an India that's rooted in Hindu cultural values while Muslims remain part of the country.
04:01And this is the remark that's in fact come in to attract the maximum amount of jibes from the opposition.
04:08And this has created quite a political debate at this given point in the country.
04:13Next up, a Hindu who wants no Muslims in India may not be a Hindu.
04:17Hatred or exclusion of Muslims is presented as inconsistent with Hindu values of acceptance in the very first place.
04:26Number three, Hindutva is not about excluding Muslims.
04:29Hindutva is described as a cultural idea that does not require Muslims to be excluded from the Indian society.
04:36Number four, different religions and one truth.
04:40In fact, that goes with the theme of the very event itself.
04:43Humanity is one.
04:44Different faiths may follow.
04:46Different paths as well.
04:48But all people at the end are seen as a part of one human family.
04:53India.
04:54Next up, India stands for a multi-faith tolerance and togetherness.
04:59India has always portrayed, has been portrayed as a country where people of different religions should be living together.
05:05peacefully in a pluralistic society.
05:08That's the fifth point.
05:10The sixth point that's been made by him, RSS does not discriminate in helping and rescue.
05:16The claim is that RSS volunteers provide help and relief based on need rather than religion.
05:22And last but not the least, public opinion brings change but not political power.
05:28The idea is that lasting social change comes from changing people's attitudes and not simply gaining government power.
05:37These are the seven major takeaways from his very address at New York City.
