โ€œThere Are Many In The RSS Who Are Goodโ€: Mamata Banerjee

RSS

โ€œRSS was not so bad earlier, I donโ€™t think they are bad now either. There are many people in the RSS who are good and donโ€™t support the BJP.

Kolkata: West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, who strongly opposes the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) stirred up a hornetsโ€™ nest after praised the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) saying that โ€œall are not bad in the Sangh Pariwarโ€ and a section of right-wing organisation does not support the policies followed by the BJP.

โ€œRSS was not so bad earlier, I donโ€™t think they are bad now either. There are many people in the RSS who are good and donโ€™t support the BJP. They will also break their silence one day,โ€ said West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee. Reacting to this, senior CPI(M) leader Sujan Chakrabarty hit back at the Chief Minister calling her an โ€œopportunistโ€ and โ€œproductโ€ of the RSS.

โ€œIt is once again clear that TMC is not trustworthy in the fight against BJP,โ€ said Sujan Chakrabarty.
The sharpest reaction came from All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) Chief Asaduddin Owaisi. โ€œIn 2003 too Mamata had called RSS โ€œpatriotsโ€. In turn RSS had called her โ€œDurgaโ€. RSS wants Hindu Rashtra. Its history is full of anti-Muslim hate crime. Sheโ€™d defended BJP govt in Parliament after Gujarat pogrom. Hope TMCโ€™s โ€œMuslim facesโ€ praise her for her honesty & consistency.โ€

Owaisi, which contested the assembly polls in Bengal, failed to win a single seat, including Muslim majority constituencies, where it positioned itself as opposed to both TMC and BJP. He had targeted the RSS, saying it wants โ€œHindu Rashtra.โ€

Meanwhile, BJP national vice-president Dilip Ghosh said neither the RSS nor the BJP needs a certificate from CM Banerjee.
