EQUATING RSS WITH SIMI

I hope Rahul Gandhi does not actually consider the two outfits to have equal degree of fanaticism. May be the media reported in a spicy manner. After all he is more knowledgeable than that and he was not talking about ABVP or Bajrang Dal. Be as it may, in case he does consider RSS as fanatic as the SIMI then it will have far reaching message. When he becomes the Prime Minister of India he will either ban RSS or lfit the ban from SIMI.

It is true that the RSS faced bans during the Prime Ministership of Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru and Smt. Indira Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi may follow the precedent. But it is equally true that Vallabh Bhai Patel and Lal Bahadur Shastri and Jaiprakash narain thought otherwise. It will be in the fitness of things that Rahul Gandhi, being so meticulour, may like to gain some first hand information about the organisations before making comments and comparisons.

I am no body to defend RSS but objectivity in the assessment of the organisations by the leader of youth is questionable.
