Muslims in India are also Hindus and India land of Hindus: RSS Chief

Agartala: Anybody living in India is a Hindu, RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat said today. "The Muslims in India are also Hindus," the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) Sarsanghchalak said.
Bhagwat, who is on a five-day tour of Tripura since Friday to review the organisational work of the RSS in the north-eastern region, said, "We have no enmity with anyone. We want welfare of all. To unite all is the meaning of Hindutva."
Maintaining that India is a land of Hindus, he said "tortured" Hindus from across the world come to the country and get shelter.
The RSS supremo said, "Hindus believe in truth, but the world respects strength. There is strength in organisation. Being organised is the natural law."
Referring to the Partition, he said parts of India got separated in 1947, leading to the weakening of the spirit of Hindutva and a decline of the "Hindu Samaj".
"India was united for so long. There was unity among the Hindus," Bhagwat said.
Highlighting the rich heritage of the country, he said, "A perturbed and confused world is looking at India for a new world order that can accommodate the materialist as well as the idealist."
