The RSS said on Tuesday that Hindutva is the “identity” of the country and asked the people to be proud of it.

“Our identity is Hindutva and the people should be proud of it. The society should work for removal of evils and the welfare of the country,” RSS chief Mohan Rao Bhagwat said while addressing volunteers at a gathering in Jaipur. “India is a Hindu nation,which is an eternal fact,” he claimed.

Bhagwat said shaping the present “modern” society along the lines of traditional Hindu culture and traditions will be the ideal route to social welfare.

He said the RSS wants to make people “responsible,and dedicated” towards the nation,which,according to him,was above all.

“Creating a well-cultured society is our aim and not contesting elections or winning seats,” Bhagwat said.

During the discourse,the RSS chief said the poll season has come and there will be plenty of assurances from candidates to seek votes,but,after winning elections,they will appear only before the next polls. He met Kanchi Peeth Shankracharya Jayendra Saraswati in Jaipur on Monday when he visited the city.
