Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat should support the opposition bloc - INDIA to "save the democracy" in the nation, said Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray-faction) leader Sanjay Raut on Tuesday.Mr Raut's remark came after the RSS chief while addressing a gathering at 'Vijayadashmi Utsav' in Maharashtra's Nagpur, said that "there are some people in the world and in India who do not want that India should move forward. They try to create factions and clashes in society."
To this, Mr Raut responded, saying if Mohan Bhagwat is trying to indicate this towards the opposition, then he should be the first one to join the INDIA bloc, as democracy of the country is in danger today..If people carrying different ideologies came into the INDIA alliance and they are trying to fight against dictatorship, then Mohan Bhagwat (RSS Chief) should support the INDIA alliance to save the nation, democracy and the constitution," Mr Raut said while speaking to media in Mumbai.The Shiv Sena (UBT) leader reiterated the INDIA bloc's claim of "Chinese occupation" on a piece of Indian land in Ladakh."If you talk about Manipur, then talk about Ladakh too. Today is Dussehra. Today is a holy day, everyone should speak the truth", Sanjay Raut said.
