I assume you are probably an NRI. This is well know to natives. Most of the BJP leaders are former RSS members including modi. Source https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-29593336 https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-29593336 RSS ideology is to make india a hindu religous state. Hinduism is based on the vedic books which advocate varna system.

  Amazing to see an authentic source like the BBC! It is the same publication that cannot complete any ISRO/Science related article without highlighting first how poor india is! So, if your source about RSS is BBC then good luck about having a non-biased conversation. You are part of the cliched narrative builders.

    > It is the same publication that cannot complete any ISRO/Science related article without highlighting first how poor india is! That's ad hominem. If you have a specific point mention that. If the only document you will accept is from RSS mouthpieces then there is no point in the conversation.

    Funny, just to check I picked 5 random BBC articles about ISRO off Google search. 3 didn't mention anything like that, one said arguments that India shouldn't invest in space tech are misguided and one cited low salaries as part of why the project was so impressively cheap compared to western programs. That doesn't seem particularly worthy of outrage?

    Here's an Indian source for the fact that Modi was a RSS member. I'm not aware that is seriously disputed anyway? https://www.google.com/amp/s/indianexpress.com/article/trending/narendra-modi-shares-his-story-to-humans-of-bombay-became-full-time-rss-pracharak-while-cleaning-its-office-5551521/lite/ https://www.google.com/amp/s/indianexpress.com/article/trend...
