Spirit of ‘mother land’ forgotten for political gains: RSS chief

Puttur: Mohan Bhagwat, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) Chief said the spirit of motherland had been forgotten in the country by the politicians for ‘short time’ political gains.

Speaking at the valedictory function of the Akhila Bharatya Pratinidhya Sabha, the highest body for policy formulation of the RSS, which met in this town of Dakshina Kannada district during the last three days, Mr Bhagwat deplored the lack of political commitment and national feeling among the politicians, who treated the ‘motherland’ as a mere ‘country side’.

“This type of apathy on part of politicians is the root cause for several unresolved several problems including the Jammu and Kashmir issue, which has been haunting the country for long time,” he said.

He asserted that the so called Pakistan-Occupied-Kashmir was an integral part of India and it cannot be ‘sold’ for mere political gains or selfish motives of politicians practising ‘vote bank’ politics.
