Sangh Parivar never opposed reservations, says Mohan Bhagwat amid row

The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) has always supported reservations and they should be continued as along as there are social inequities in the country, asserted its chief Mohan Bhagawat on Sunday.

Participating at the launch of the Vidya Bharti Vignana Kendra in Nadargul of Rangareddy district, he said he came across a video being circulated in social media, which said that the Sangh was against reservations and said that “there was no truth in such statements”.

Ever since reservations were introduced for the weaker sections, the RSS has supported them without any conditions and is of the view that they are required for some groups because of the existing discriminations in the society.
