Rss Pants

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday launched a veiled attack on the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and dubbed them as "21st century Kauravas".

Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh joint general secretary Krishna Gopal on Wednesday questioned the view that Muslims "are afraid" in India while other minorities such as Parsis, Buddhists and Jains, who are fewer in number, feel secure.

A day after the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh warned that Hindus would not shy away from launching a 1992-like mass agitation for a Ram temple at Ayodhya, BJP General Secretary Ram Madhav today said the delay in the construction of the temple is causing anxiety among the Hindu community.

After country-wide raids and arrests of prominent activists for alleged Maoist links, Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday took a dig at the centre and said that in the "new India", there was place for only one NGO - the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh or the RSS, which is the ideological mentor of the BJP.

The BJP's Trivendra Singh Rawat, who had been a long-time RSS pracharak, will take oath as the Chief Minister of Uttarakhand today. Mr Rawat, who had worked closely with party chief Amit Shah during the 2014 national election, has many years of experience as a minister. His name was proposed by BJP leader Prakash Pant and seconded by Satpal Maharaj...

Bihar politician Lalu Yadav, a fierce critic of the RSS, credits his wife Rabri Devi for the organisation's big sartorial revamp from khaki shorts to trousers.

From today the RSS volunteers with cast away the khaki shorts, their trademark attire for 90 years, and don trousers, heralding a generational change in the organisation which is ruling BJP's ideological mentor.

Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh or RSS members will have to bring out their new full pants for rallies that they plan in Tamil Nadu in October to celebrate Vijayadashmi, with the state's high court saying they cannot march in the half pants that they have worn for nine decades.

With the RSS deciding to go in for a sartorial change from its trademark half pants to trousers, new sets of uniform will be provided to its volunteers ahead of the foundation-day celebrations on the Vijayadashami day on October 11, at its headquarters in Nagpur and other centres across the country.

The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh's new khaki pants were delivered today at its shop that sells uniforms near its headquarters in Nagpur, Maharashtra. 10,000 of them in the first batch, each for Rs 250.

Eight men and 20 women have been hard at work at Akola village -- 80 km from Chittorgarh town. They have to deliver 10 lakh trousers by July - well in time for them to be worn on Vijaya Dashami, the 91st foundation day of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, the ideological mentor of the BJP.

RJD chief Lalu Prasad has credited his wife and former chief minister Rabri Devi for the change in RSS' dress code from khaki shorts to trousers.

India's largest and most strident Hindu nationalist organization, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, is changing. No, not its core beliefs of Hindu supremacist pride. But its dress code.

The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh's traditional khaki shorts could soon be replaced by full-length pants.
