Cong Lost

I think Congress party is in short of issues in Madhya Pradesh. Their statement that RSS is in the terrorist list of US is baseless and without any element of truth.
Below is the actual truth about the whole episode.

Terrorism Research Center, Inc. (TRC) based in Virginia, USA has listed the RSS as a terrorist organization. This news is a total distortion of the facts. First, I do not know why suddenly this news appeared in the Indian press as the TRC website has been referring to RSS on its website for about two years. Second, as two letters, attached hereto, including one from the TRC, indicate it has only posted on its website a news item about RSS and added RSS to its data base and has not designated RSS as a terrorist organization.



Recently, I investigated the details of TRC; it is simply a paper organization with a website and no office. Neither this organization nor its directors are known to the U.S. State Department, institutions and think tanks involved with foreign affairs and issues related to terrorism. I urge the Indian news media to refrain from spreading false news about RSS without any sound basis.
