Chandigarh, December 06: The RSS, severely indicted by the Liberhan Commission for the Babri Masjid demolition, today strongly emphasised on the principle of unity in diversity saying the “culture and traditions of Muslims and Christians are akin to Hindus”.
“We should move ahead collectively…uniformity is must for unity of the country and it is the Sangh’s thought,” RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat told a gathering of organisational workers and citizens here on the occasion of 17th anniversary of demolition of Babri Masjid.
He, however, did not make any direct reference to the bringing down of the disputed structure in Ayodhya in 1992 for which the Liberhan Commission had strongly indicted the RSS.
“No ideology preaches that everything should be separate … our way of living life might be different but we must move ahead in unity,” Bhagwat said.
