On Saturday (12th October), RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat gave a clarion call for Hindu unity during his annual Vijayadashami address. During his address, the RSS Chief warned the country about the pertinent problems that are plaguing every upright civilization and country. He categorically noted that ‘Deep State’, ‘Wokeism’, and ‘Cultural Marxist’ are the “declared enemies” of all cultural traditions. Notably, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh has entered its 100th year on this auspicious occasion of Vijayadashami.
During the event, he also cautioned the nation against the ‘Grammar of Anarchy’ while pointing towards the sudden increase in incidents that “incite fanaticism without any reason”. Pointing towards the rampant Islamist attacks of stone pelting on Hindu festivals like Ganeshotsava, he emphasised that these incidents of unprovoked stone pelting on Hindu religious processions are examples of the same grammar.
He stressed that the administration must prevent such incidents. He, however, underscored the need for society to always remain fully alert and prepared and to “identify these evil tendencies” and those who support them.
Urging unity among the Hindu society, RSS Chief Bhagwat said, “Hindu community across the world should learn the lesson that being unorganised and weak is like inviting atrocities by the wicked.”
He emphasised that as Bharat’s image, power, fame, and position on the world stage are constantly improving, sinister conspiracies are being hatched and we should understand it properly. In our current scenario, such challenges are clearly visible and attempts to disturb and destabilise the country seem to be gaining momentum from all directions, the RSS Chief added.
Slamming foreign powers and vested interest groups who want to create trouble in India, RSS Chief Bhagwat added, “It is on expected lines that certain powers whose vested interests are affected by our country’s rise in the world that they would let Bharat grow only within certain limits. This commitment of the countries that claim to be liberal, democratic, and committed to world peace vanishes as soon as the question of their security and self-interest arises. Then they do not hesitate to attack other countries or overthrow their democratically elected governments through illegal and/or violent means. All these things can be understood by observing the sequence of events happening, both inside Bharat and around the world. The deliberate attempt to tarnish Bharat’s image based on lies or half-truths is clearly visible.”
Expressing concerns about the plight of Bangladesh Hindus, the RSS Chief further stated, “Recently, the violent coup that took place in Bangladesh has the immediate and local reasons which are just one dimension of those events. The practice of unprovoked brutal atrocities on the Hindu community residing there was repeated.”
He also expressed concern about the illegal infiltration from Bangladesh into Bharat and the population imbalance it leads to.

Highlighting nefarious anti-India narrative being peddled in Bangladesh, RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat said, “In Bangladesh, such discussions are going on that we have a threat from India and hence we have to side with Pakistan since they have a nuclear weapon we can stop India… We all know which countries are pushing such discussions, and narrations, we don’t need to take their name. Their wish is to create such conditions in India as well. Such industries are being run to stop India.”
It is pertinent to note that many Western media outlets including DW, were accused of launching a smear campaign against India and falsely blaming India for the flash floods in Bangladesh. India had repeatedly busted the lies regarding these anti-India campaigns.
Meanwhile, Bhagwat added, “Words like ‘Deep State’, ‘Wokeism’, ‘Cultural Marxist’ are in discussion these days. In fact, they are the declared enemies of all cultural traditions. Complete destruction of values, traditions, and whatever is considered virtuous and auspicious is a part of the modus operandi of this group.”
The RSS Chief explained further that the first step of this modus operandi is to control educational institutions, media, intellectual discourse, etc., and to destroy the thoughts, values, and beliefs of society through them.
He continued, “In a society living together, an identity-based group is motivated to separate based on its actual or artificially created specialty, demand, need, or problem. A feeling of victimhood is created in them. By fanning discontent, that element is pulled apart from the rest of the society and made aggressive against the system. Direct conflicts are created by finding fault lines in society. An atmosphere of anarchy and fear is created by intensifying distrust and hatred toward the system, laws, governance, administration, etc. This makes it easy to establish one’s dominance over that country.”
Alluding to a nexus of opposition with ‘foreign powers’, Bhagwat stated, “In a multiparty democratic system of governance, their modus operandi is to stand in support of one party and advance their destructive agenda in the name of ‘Alternative Politics’, especially when party/parties put selfish interests above national interests. This is not a fictional story but a reality that has happened in many countries of the world. As a result of this revolution, the stability, peace, and prosperity of life can be clearly seen to be in danger in the developed countries of the Western world. We have seen this system working from the so-called ‘Arab Spring’ to what happened recently in neighbouring Bangladesh. We are seeing similar evil attempts all around Bharat – especially in the border and tribal areas.”
Deep state notorious for running ‘Regime change operations’; facing backlash for increased ‘outreach’ with India’s opposition
While the Western media peddled an anti-India narrative in Bangladesh over flash flood incidents, it is being accused of pulling down the elected government of Sheikh Hasina in Bangladesh. Incidentally, she too had warned the country about the US interference and meddling in their internal affairs, stating that the US was targeting her government as she refused to hand over Saint Martine’s island.
Likewise, recently it was reported that US Baptist church have been fueling fire in India’s Northeast state, Manipur. In the past, foreign-funded NGOs, have been accused of fueling protest, anarchy, religious conversion industry, and undermining India’s democratic institutions like the Election Commission, the Judiciary, bureaucracy, and media among others.
The allegation of US meddling, through its lackeys like Western media outlets – WSJ, NYT, DW, Guardian, etc, ‘rating agencies’, have picked pace especially after India didn’t relent under US-led Western pressure to stop buying oil from Russia.
Incidentally, the US has been time and again, accused of using ‘pliable’ organisations like USCIRF and other so-called “Rating agencies” to further the agenda of the Deep State. This includes de-establishing Nationalist governments who refuse to play ball with the US administration and take dictation from them, an elaborate scheme notorious as “Regime Change operations” or manufacturing “Colour revolution”.
Strikingly, in recent months, there has been a noticeable trend of opposition leaders engaging with US diplomats. On September 3rd, US Ambassador to India Eric Garcetti met with Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge at his residence.
India and the United States enjoy a comprehensive global strategic partnership covering almost all areas of human endeavour, driven by shared democratic values.

Earlier, US diplomats engaged with leaders of the National Conference in Jammu and Kashmir ahead of the Assembly elections in the valley. Notably, Minister-Counsellor for Political Affairs Graham Mayer and First Secretary Gary Applegarth met with National Conference Vice President Omar Abdullah to discuss matters related to the elections.

Additionally, Jennifer Larson, the US Consul General overseeing the American mission in Hyderabad, met with AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi and the Chief Minister of Telangana in early August.
Thank you, Member of Parliament and leader of AlMIM @asadowaisi for your kind hospitality and for sharing your informed and important views on a range of shared issues and concerns. I look forward to continuing our discussions! #USIndiaFWD pic.twitter.com/WsDTVzKI0h

It was also reported that the US diplomats or Biden administration team met with protesting ‘farmer leaders’. Last but not least, according to the US administration, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi met with Donald Lu, notorious for executing regime change operations in several countries, “as part of regular diplomatic engagement”.
Nonetheless, the ongoing meetings between Indian opposition leaders and US diplomats have raised alarm over potential US interference in Indian democracy, a concern that incidentally PM Modi had also flagged in his recent address.
The development gained prominence in the backdrop that Congress leader Rahul Gandhi faced massive backlash for his remarks during his foreign visits. While claiming that things have worsened in India, he called for Western intervention in India’s internal affairs, a remark which has garnered sharp criticism from all corners for calling for foreign intervention and meddling in India’s internal affairs.
Against this backdrop, PM Modi and RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat’s recent remark alarming about the collusion between the opposition parties and foreign powers is a cause for concern for the country and warning bells about ongoing efforts of democratic subversion in India.
