'RSS bears unimpeachable credentials, comprises of people committed to serving the nation': VP Jagdeep Dhankhar in RS

Vice President and Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar on Wednesday expressed his support for Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh and said that the organisation has been contributing to national welfare. It is soothing to note, wholesome to note that RSS as an organisation has been contributing to national welfare, and our culture, and everyone should take pride in any organisation which is acting in this manner.” The remarks by the Rajya Sabha Chairman come after the central government lifted the ban on participation of government employees in RSS activities. Congress MP Shashi Tharoor had referred to it as “very strange” after the central government lifted the ban on the participation of government employees in RSS activities. Tharoor said that it is the responsibility of the government employees to work for everyone and added that they should remain “neutral” when in government.
