Congress' Maharashtra MLA Vijay Wadettiwar took a jibe at Bharatiya Janata Party on Saturday, saying that the party must have "understood that they won the elections because of RSS," as Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to visit Nagpur for Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh's (RSS) centenary celebrations.
"After 12 years, PM Modi is visiting there (RSS headquarters) ...I think that the BJP must have understood that they won the elections because of RSS. RSS claims that BJP won elections because of them, and I think this is true," Wadettiwar told ANI. He further claimed that with the distribution of Saugat-e-Modi kits across the country, it signals that there is a "change" in the ideology of RSS, claiming the organisation has moved away from talking division to now going ahead together. "The question is that if PM Modi is going there and 3 days ago he started Saugat-E-Modi, this means that there is a change in the ideology of RSS...For 100 years, they used to talk about division, and now I hope they talk about going ahead together," he said. PM Modi is set to visit Nagpur, on Sunday (March 30). PM Modi will visit four places, including Smruti Mandir of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), Deekshaboomi, Madhav Netralaya, and Solar Industrial Explosives. He is expected to travel to Nagpur at around 9 AM to take Darshan at Smruti Mandir and then visit Deekshabhoomi. He will lay the foundation stone of Madhav Netralaya Premium Centre in Nagpur at around 10 AM and address a public meeting there. At around 12:30 PM, he will inaugurate the Loitering Munition Testing Range and Runway facility for UAVs at Solar Defence and Aerospace Limited in Nagpur. According to a release issued by the PMO, the Prime Minister will also visit Chhattisgarh on March 30. (ANI)
