Dear Anvir Aravind, 

 your post with patent hate towards a social, cultural  service organisation like Rastriya swayam Sevak sangh is to say the least is disgusting, for it was the only organisation with its volanteers that stood with army in kashmir when pak aggression took place, it was the only organisation when nation was under aggression from China, its  volanteers were the firat to reach out to cyclone victims in Andhra Pradesh, to rescue, cremate the dead and spare the calamity of epidemics in the water logged areas at considerable risk to themselves, it is different that it was invited to march past in Republic day parades by Nehru himself is forgotten today, as nation in the grips of rome nominee. !
   If a community is united without the caste divisions as strong hindu society just as other faiths in the parish or mohalla, it is good for the nation as strong thread of a strong rope, society.

    Secular does not mean dividing the communities on their castes, or as shias and sunnis or as roman catholics and protestants. ? Secular governance should mean all citizens of the society are treated equally by the system irrespective of the religion and caste, no special treatment for any followers of faith. It is unfortunate that vote bank politics has made us more aware of the caste and faith whereas the need was to live and get governance on equity and natural justice without fear or favour to any caste or faith. 
  Regards.
