The writer is joint general secretary of the RSS
Political parties must understand why people are turning towards RSS, BJP
The RSS is a grass roots organisation which exists despite serious opposition from the establishment, only because it enjoys the support of the people of India. The Left, on the other hand, has consistently lost popular support.
A young girl I met at the Jaipur Literature Festival (JLF) this year mentioned that the Left influence was quite evident in the selection of topics as well as speakers. She also narrated a conversation she had with her team leader, a self-proclaimed left activist. The team leader told her that the well-known lyricist, Prasoon Joshi, was not invited to JLF because “he had become a right-winger” as was evident from his lyrics in Manikarnika. Literature for the Left is a tool to invoke revolution, to take a stand against State oppression.
