The murder of Father of the Nation Mahatma Gandhi by a Hindutva follower Nathuram Godse not only shocked the whole nation; it led RSS followers to celebrate this event by distributing sweets. While RSS followers were celebrating, and the links of Godse with RSS became apparent, RSS was banned and Golwalkar was arrested. They denied that RSS had any links with Godse. At that time it was easy to claim so as RSS had no written constitution and membership lists, enrollment register etc. Godse was RSS Pracharak and later he joined Hindu Mahasabha and was editing a newspaper, Agrani (leader), the subtitle of the paper was Hindu Rashtra. In the court he denied any links with RSS. Later his brother Gopal Godse, who was also an accomplice in the murder, in an interview given to Times of India (25 Jan 98) stated that his brother Nathuram spoke a deliberate lie in the court, "The appeasement policy followed by him (Gandhi) and imposed on all Congress governments' encouraged the Muslim separatist tendencies that eventually created Pakistan%u2026Technically and theoretically he (Nathuram) was a member (of RSS), but he stopped workings for it later. His statement in the court that he had left the RSS was to protect the RSS workers who would be imprisoned following the murder. On the understanding that they (RSS workers) would benefit from his dissociating himself from the RSS, he gladly did it."

These organisations like RSS, VHP, Bajrang Dal are like a cancer to India. They are hell bent to divide this Nation. They are the greatest liars in this world. Everyone knows that Godse was a RSS member but our courts, again dominated by Brahmins, didnot consider Godse having any links with RSS. Even now you can find out that in many cases, when the dirty act is over and the legal strangle is expected, they will diown that person. What happened when one Dara Singh killed Graham Staines. What is happening with the CD issue in UP. These people are very cuning and very unethical and can go to any level to keep themselves superior.
