From DW News.
Events are underway in India to mark 100 years since the foundation of the powerful Hindu nationalist group, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh. The RSS was founded in 1925, with the explicit aim of establishing a Hindu nation in the wake of British colonial rule. It has deep ties with the ruling BJP party, and Prime Mine Minister Narendra Modi was a former member. Despite being banned several times, it has enjoyed a recent surge in political power, which critics see as a threat to the country’s secular society. DW’s Shalu Yadav reports from the holy city of Mathura in northern India.
