RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat public statements

Overview

RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat has made several public statements regarding social and political issues in India.

In July, speaking in Hyderabad, Bhagwat addressed the LGBTQ+ community, stating they are an “integral part of Indian society” and should be treated with respect and dignity. He noted that Indian tradition has historically recognized such communities through “quiet arrangements” and mentioned their presence in religious events like the Kumbh Mela.

In August, during an Independence Day gathering in Nagpur, Bhagwat shifted focus to democratic principles and national development. He characterized debate, dialogue, and protest as essential to democracy and cited B. R. Ambedkar as a model for managing diverse perspectives. He also discussed the importance of guiding India’s youth and warned of internal and external forces working against India’s goal of becoming a global leader, or “Vishwaguru.”
