Raj Thackeray criticizes RSS for calling language protests a "disease," saying it dismisses regional identities, while BJP defends RSS events as voluntary.
Raj Thackeray, leader of the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena, condemned RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat’s characterization of language protests as a "disease," arguing it undermines legitimate regional and linguistic identities across India.
Thackeray cited strong regional pride in states like Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Punjab, West Bengal, and Gujarat, and questioned why the RSS hasn’t addressed similar tensions elsewhere.
He accused the RSS of hypocrisy for not speaking out against Hindi imposition, Hindutva-related violence, and cow slaughter politics, while reaffirming the MNS’s commitment to defending Marathi identity.
The BJP dismissed Thackeray’s claims, stating attendance at RSS events is voluntary and not driven by fear.
The exchange has intensified political debate over language, identity, and the role of national organizations in Maharashtra.
