Of late; political compulsions have made Left and so-called secular parties run malicious propaganda about RSS’s role in independence struggle and malign its sterling record of public service. This book tells us that RSS was wedded to the cause of Swaraj since its inception. Dr. Hedgewar’s life and actions and the oath that swayamsevaks took clearly showed the commitment to freedom struggle. To convert this freedom into Swaraj; India required disciplined and brave spirited young men who would be dedicated to the national cause. British records clearly show that they were vary of RSS using its growing clout for independence struggle. Movement for freedom did not end with ‘Tryst with Destiny’ on 15th August; 1947. There were endless dark nights in this twilight period; when RSS workers were the biggest organised force apart from security forces who put their lives to risk to salvage whatever they could; of destroyed lives of millions. It is for people of India and history to judge whether these acts of bravery were patriotic or communal. The author highlights other factors that led to our Independence and underlines that it was not result of any one agitation or action but rose slowly over a wave that had built up on the back of cultural renaissance triggered by great spiritual leaders of Bharat.

A flourishing career, a passionate love affair and a lasting friendship come in the way of an unforgiving disaster. What ensues is a desperate attempt to hold onto the pieces that are falling apart. The pandemic not just ravaged the lives of millions of people but also bolstered the feelings of love, friendship and brotherhood in its wake. When the world was collapsing under COVID-19, a group of youngsters was busy salvaging humanity. While the Delhiites were adrift on the second wave, the heroic efforts of Rahul, a small-town boy, and Aditi, a gorgeous, affluent and qualified doctor with a benevolent heart, together with the support of the district administration’s office proved that not all heroes wear capes. But are these heroes ready to pay the price for providing succour to others? Will they be magnanimous enough to let go of their own dreams, aspirations and even their life as they devote their time and resources to provide relief to strangers? Will their love tide over the unforgiving disaster that has gripped the world?

For many years, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh has been working towards social reconstruction in India, which is then used by the Bharatiya Janata Party for political benefit. Contrary to popular understanding, the RSS has transformed to become more technologically savvy and socially inclusive, making the message of Hindu nationalism appealing to a large section of Indians. It has been actively mobilizing Dalits, tribals and other marginalized communities to assimilate them into the Hindutva metanarrative. Instead of wiping out caste from electoral politics, the RSS plays up the identity of disadvantaged groups, which translates into votes for the BJP. Drawing on extensive field research in the heartland of Uttar Pradesh, this path-breaking book shows how through well-planned strategies of appropriation and social work, Hindutva forces are radically reshaping Indian democracy.

Founded in 1925, banned three times by the governments of independent India but with a widespread network of thousands of local branches and millions of volunteers, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh's (RSS) presence and influence is formidable. However, it has long been acknowledged that the best way to know the RSS is to join it. Perhaps, this is why there is very little literature on how it functions. As a senior member who has managed various responsibilities in the RSS over the years, Ratan Sharda reveals the supposedly secret world of this volunteer organisation. He presents a comprehensive view of the Sangh's philosophy, its workings and its humungous reach through various organisations inspired by it across India in a simple and easy-flowing manner, sprinkled with interesting anecdotes. With an insider's knowledge of the philosophy, organisational structure and working of this huge cadre-based organisation, RSS 360o is a compelling read, attempting to lift the alleged veil of secrecy that shrouds the organisation.

Born out of a meditation on the ideas of the nation state and nationalism, and what the new power structures and centres mean for the very idea of India, Hindutva or Hind Swaraj is a manifesto -- written in the form of aphorisms, using shifting tones and styles to make a deep, elegant and heartfelt point about the human cost of radicalization. This last work of Jnanpith award winner and pre-eminent writer U.R. Ananthamurthy is a creative response to the rise of Hindutva nationalism in India. Juxtaposing V.D. Savarkar's idea of Hindutva with M.K. Gandhi's concept of Hind Swaraj, the book examines the two directions that were open to India at the time of Independence.

This book lays out the nuances of all those stories of ‘Sangh and Sarkar’ layer by layer. Since the year 2014, there has been a wonderful example of coordination between the Sangh and BJP. Then there are many such examples like reservation, UP CM, BHU Vice Chancellor where there were possibilities of confrontation, but the matters were resolved in a few hours through dialogue. Social harmony for the penetration among Dalits, the campaign to create an intellectual movement after the JNU scandal, Pranab Mukherjee’s visit to the Sangh headquarters, the vision of ‘Future India’ from Vigyan Bhavan and finally, direct contact with three and a half lakh villages regarding the issues of the Modi government within the context of nationality not only increased the base of both the Sangh and the BJP, but the Vichar Pariwar also played an important role in preparing the ground for a bigger victory than in the year 2014. After the 2019 victory, ideological issues such as Article 370, Ram Mandir, etc. were swiftly dealt with so that commitment of those inclined towards the ideology of Sangh-BJP could be sealed. This book discusses how to take steps towards building new India by ending the gap of six decades in six years.

Have you thought that why certain states or countries progress while others suffer at hands of corruption and violence. You may think that the society has become morally corrupt or maybe world superpowers doesn’t want third world to thrive because of economical gains. Or May be there is secret deal between Gods and Dark Lords to share the world among them to keep the peace. Welcome to the world of defenders where a government servant, a slave living in a society of superheroes and a lost God of Air defends against the enemies at the gates of their homes. Amar becomes DOGAM with help of Street Dogs to defend Delhi, a city that disregards them, Eklavya reborn as Swaraj who returns to a secret society of superheroes that once treated him as slave and Vayu regains his powers to stop an enemy who has vowed to destroy the almighty. They need each other, but will they will fight together to defend us?
