Normalcy is returning in Manipur, says Sunil Ambekar
The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh said on Monday (July 7, 2025) that normalcy was returning to Manipur as the Meitei and Kuki-Zo communities have begun communicating. Addressing the media in Delhi, the RSS's national publicity in-charge Mr. Ambekar said it took a lot of time for the situation to become normal when such disturbances erupt in any region. 'But compared with last year, normalcy has definitely started returning to the State. This happens due to the dialogue between the two communities,' said Mr Ambekar. Emphasising how RSS workers tirelessly worked in riot-hit areas of Manipur, Mr. Ambekar said the Sangh had also attempted to speak with both groups and owing to this, positive changes can be seen on the ground. Speaking on the issues discussed over the three days of the 'Prant Pracharak' (regional heads) meeting that concluded in Delhi on July 6, Mr. Ambekar said senior organisation members shared recent developments in their areas and burning issues of the country were discussed. 'Our volunteers from bordering States shared their experience and the present condition of their region. The Pracharaks also shared the public's opinion on Operation Sindoor and other recent events of national importance,' he said. Sharing the Sangh's plan to mark its centenary, Mr. Ambekar said that the organisation was looking to reach out to every village and every house. 'As part of our centenary year, we will be organising Hindu Sammelans [meetings] in 58,964 mandals and 44,055 bastis across the country. There will be discussion on social festivals, social unity and harmony, and Panch Parivartan (five transformations). Similarly, Samajik Sadbhav Baithaks [Social harmony meetings] will be organised in 11,360 blocks and towns to promote social harmony in the society,' Mr Ambekar informed. He also shared the RSS's plans for door-to-door outreach and said efforts will be made to reach maximum number of houses in every village. The main goal in the RSS's centenary year is inclusive outreach across professions, geographies, and communities to foster holistic social integration, Mr. Ambekar remarked.

Nothing wrong if RSS is banned: Tangadagi
Koppal: Kannada & culture minister Shivaraj Tangadagi said that RSS was banned thrice in the past, and there is nothing wrong if it is banned again. Speaking to reporters here on Monday, Tangadagi said that Vallabh Bhai Patel banned the RSS. "Persons like BJP MLC Ravikumar, who often insult women, are trained by RSS. As it often involves in communal clashes, it can be banned. Because of it, harmony is disturbed in coastal Karnataka. It is washing the brains of only middle-class, backward community youths. No wards of BJP functionaries like Amit Shah, R Ashoka, Arvind Bellad are full-time workers. Youths of poor and middle-class families are made full-time workers," he added. Expressing respect for Poornandapoori Swamiji of Vishwa Ganiga Trust, Tangadagi insisted that if evidence is provided for the allegations against him, he will shun politics. "Actions were taken for fund release as per the finance department's instructions. We plan to file a defamation case against the Swamiji for the baseless allegations," he added. He noted that the Ganiga community's seer expects the immediate release of funds upon request, which he believes is not appropriate as there are rules and regulations to follow. Regarding the topic of changing the chief minister, he mentioned that the high command has instructed not to speak publicly about it, and he is abiding by that. "We are unaware of why KN Rajanna spoke about the Sept revolution. We are also unaware of what Rayareddi said about the guarantee scheme. We will not comment on senior leaders," he asserted. He added that promoting or demoting Siddaramaiah and DK Shivakumar is up to the state's people, and it is not possible just because the BJP says so. "An event for beneficiaries is scheduled in Koppal on Aug 4, with CM and DCM expected to attend. Various projects for the Koppal district assembly constituencies will be launched on that day," he informed.

RSS says working to restore peace in Manipur: ‘Things moving in positive direction … believe solution will be found'
As the Union government engages with Manipur's Meitei and Kuki groups in Delhi, the RSS on Monday said it was involved in bringing the two communities together and that a solution to the ongoing ethnic conflict in the state 'will be found'. RSS publicity in-charge Sunil Ambekar said the Sangh had established communication with both Meiteis and Kukis.'When situations worsen in a region, they do not become alright in a day. But compared to last year, there is a modicum of peace (in Manipur). The kind of communication that is taking place on either side (of the divide), we believe a solution will be found,' he said at a press conference here following the conclusion of the Sangh's Prant Pracharak Baithak, which was held from Friday to Sunday. Ambekar said Sangh representatives in Manipur discussed the issue during the national-level meeting of all of its regional representatives. All top RSS leaders, including its chief Mohan Bhagwat, attended the meeting. 'Representatives from various regions participated. They spoke about the Sangh's endeavours in Manipur in terms of efforts being made by workers to establish peace in the state … how they are establishing communication with both Meitei and Kuki communities to ensure that the environment improves … According to their experience, things are moving in a positive direction. It may take some time, but some positive news has been received from them,' Ambekar said. The RSS statement comes at a time when New Delhi, through its Northeast advisor A K Mishra, has been holding weekly meetings with Meitei civil society groups as well as Kuki militant groups in a Suspension of Operation (SoO) agreement with the Centre. ' The meeting with the SoO groups, which began almost two years after the conflict started in May 2023, has been touted to be a significant initiative by the Centre. The government hopes these meetings, in due course, will help achieve free movement in the state as a first step and also get SoO groups to agree to move their camps away from the fringes of the Imphal Valley. Sources said the imposition of President's Rule in the state had helped bring down violence, paving the way for fruitful talks. According to Ambekar, various contemporary issues, including India's response to terrorism through Operation Sindoor, were discussed at the three-day meeting. Maharashtra language row The RSS leader also reacted to the language row in Maharashtra and appeared to underline the Sangh's stance. 'The Sangh has always maintained that all languages of India are national languages. In their respective regions, people talk in their language and it has always been everyone's appeal that primary education must be in the local language. This is an established fact now,' he said. Two government orders on Hindi as the third language in primary schools in Maharashtra recently led to widespread protests by the Opposition. After the orders were revoked last week, estranged cousins Uddhav Thackeray of the Shiv Sena (UBT) and Raj Thackeray of the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena came together at a 'victory rally' in Mumbai last Saturday, giving rise to speculation around the shifting political equations in the state ahead of the Mumbai civic polls. Kerala 'Bharat Mata' row Reacting to the Bharat Mata row in Kerala, Ambekar said, 'People should read history. The imagination of Bharat Mata did not begin with the Sangh. It is a very old imagination. Traditionally, we view Bharat as our mother and in different points of history, this has been part of the (national) imagination. Even during the freedom struggle, this imagination was all-pervasive. Freedom fighters also have had this imagination. So, traditionally, we (the nation) have imagined our country as a mother. Its picturisation keeps happening in different ways. It should be viewed with the same respect.' A row erupted in Kerala last month after Governor Rajendra Arlekar paid tribute to a portrait of Bharat Mata holding a saffron flag during Goa Day celebrations at the Raj Bhavan. Earlier, the Left Democratic Front government had relocated its World Environment Day celebrations from the Raj Bhavan, claiming that the photo of Bharat Mata on display at the event was 'one used by the RSS'. On Monday, Ambekar once again reacted to Karnataka minister Priyank Kharge's remarks about banning the RSS. 'The Sangh has been banned in the past as well. They did not withdraw it (the ban), but were rather forced to. Sometimes because of the courts and sometimes because of agitations. They never did it on their own. They tried, but because it did not sit well with the law, they had to withdraw the ban,' he said. Asked about events planned for the Sangh's centenary celebrations, Ambekar said the RSS was going to organise Hindu sammelans across the country at the mandal level in rural areas and the 'slum-level' in urban areas. 'There are 58,964 mandals and 44,055 bastis (slums). There will be 11,360 samajik sadbhav (societal harmony) meetings across 'khand (another type of administrative unit)' and 'nagar (urban area)' levels. These meetings, with the participation of the society, will focus on rejuvenating religious thought and removing social ills. Then there will be a 'Grih Sampark (household outreach)' campaign where workers will go house to house with Sangh literature. There will also be 924 district-level outreach events to eminent citizens over nationalistic and Hindutva thought.'
