World Hindu Congress Chicago

Mamata Banerjee was not stopped by the government from visiting Chicago for the World Hindu Conference, the foreign ministry has said, asserting that it never received a request for approval.

Delegates at the World Hindu Congress being held in Chicago received a sweet box in their welcome packet containing two ladoos -- one hard and one soft.

RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat's strong pitch for the consolidation of Hindus invited criticism from Opposition parties on Saturday, while BJP general secretary Ram Madhav defended the statement.

Lamenting that the Hindus have been suffering for thousands of years, RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat has asked them to come together and organise themselves, saying "if a lion is alone, wild dogs can invade and destroy him".

Hindus have no aspiration of dominance and the community will prosper only when it works as a society, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh or RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat said today, urging community leaders to unite and work for the betterment of mankind.

Various aspects of Hindu philosophy can help find the solution to several problems that plague the world today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Friday and called for using technology to connect more people with the thoughts of Hinduism.

Heads of several countries with a sizeable Hindu population, chief ministers of states, top corporate honchos and religious leaders are scheduled to attend the second World Hindu Congress or WHC in Chicago in September, organisers of the mega event said today.
