    The 'chaddi gang' which was founded on hate ideology is possibly suffering from guilt and wants to change its image to fool around.

    Or talking peace while silently preparing for war.

    Main slogan of RSS...Always tell truth....good example none other than..modiji..amitaji...mohanji..!! Most of sangha parivaar people are earlier associated with congress to fight against britishers in freedom movement. Batallion of people belonged to RSS...struggled...fought daringly with britishers and latter imprisoned. There names still not exist in congress's history book. Veer Savarkar and his brother kept in andaman prison for many years. We received independance not through satyagraha done by mahatmaji..but by struggle. On that time only congress party exists and more of people joined in it to build nation..credit retained by themselves. Nor anywhere in the world any country procured independance by peacefully. Nehru-Gandhi only pawn in the hands of britishers...enjoying there status.

    During the campaign prior to the 2014 Lok Sabha election, the Gujju-bhai promised to bring back black money from abroad to India and deposit Rs. 15 lakh from it into every citizen's bank account.

    Did the Gujju-bhai follow RSS' "Always tell truth"?

    Or, are you suggesting that promises by the active RSS members made do not need to be done in truthfulness?

    The Indian national Congress, which carried India's freedom struggle since 1884, pride of every Indian "RESTED" for ever as Congres party split in 1968 as Old Congress headed by S. N. Nijalingappa-Morargi Desai and Nehru-Indira Congress. The real Indian Congress freedom fighters were never involved in power politics after India gained it's Independence...

    One thing is certain, it takes tooo long for any RSS person, to acknowledge the truth and facts. Since it is for the first time it is natural that there is a suspicion. Is it a gimmick again?
    Most if not all BJP bhakts will be scratching themselves, as they always forced to discredit congress by their tutors.
