Yadav further accused the RSS of being an agent and informer for the British Raj. “Their organisation (RSS) itself has been an agent and informer of the British Raj. The aim of RSS has always been to undermine the historical contribution of Dalits, backward classes, working-class people, and farmers. Mohan Bhagwat ji, the country is heading towards economic slavery because the rupee is at an all-time low against the dollar. Please pay attention to that.”Tejashwi also raised questions about the RSS’s internal structure, pointing out its exclusion of Dalits and backward castes. “RSS should answer when the majority of Dalits and backward people in the country will get real freedom. Why has no Dalit or backward caste member ever become the head of the RSS in its 100-year history? Why has a woman never been made the chief of RSS so far?”The RJD leader also demanded answers from the RSS on the caste census and the proportionate increase in reservations for Dalits and backward classes in line with their population.In contrast, JD(U), a major ally of the BJP, defended Bhagwat’s statement, urging Tejashwi to review the full content of Bhagwat’s speech delivered at a function in Indore before commenting. “Half knowledge is a dangerous thing,” JD(U) said.
