RSS chief calls for respect to India's diversity of faiths
Nagpur, Oct 22 (IBNS) Amid rising cases of intolerance and the flak faced by the Narendra Modi government over recent incidents, the ruling BJP's ideological patron Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS)'s chief Mohan Bhagwat said that India in keeping with its great tradition has to aspire for common good by respecting its diversity.
"We had great traditions of unity and pluralism. If we have to go towards a common goal then we have to also unite. We have great traditions of having many communities," he said delivering a speech at the RSS headquarters here and echoing India's unity in diversity ethos.
He said the unity of India should not be jolted and to change with time has also been our tradition, but it should come from inside.
He said the good of entire human race also means respect towards the diversity.
He praised the Narendra Modi government and the foreign policy of the current regime and the PM.
