Religious Nationalism Minus Anti-Colonialism: The RSS Between 1925 and 1950

Legal Researcher -
The RSS from its seeding and growth as an organisation in the first 25 years of its existence not only stayed completely aloof from the vibrant freedom struggle against British colonial rule, but was concerned from its inception in weaving and re-constructing a conceived nation of :Hindus” influences by casteist doctrine, admiring of European fascism and even –post 1967—celebrating Israel’s “aggressive Zionist militarism”: confirming the organisation's ideological alignment with exclusionary, militant ethnic nationalism as a valid path to realizing “historical destiny”
