RSS Maintains Hindutva Ideology Amidst Socialist Alliances
The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) has maintained its core Hindutva ideology despite forming political alliances with socialists, according to an analysis of historical events. The RSS demonstrated a pragmatic approach to coalition-building, engaging with socialist leaders and movements without diluting its fundamental beliefs. This approach was evident when the Jan Sangh, mentored by the RSS, faced a difficult decision to merge with other parties to form the Janata Party, as Jan Sangh was the only party without Congress roots and possessed a distinct Hindutva philosophy and economic thought.
