RSS never seeks report card on government's functioning: Rajnath Singh

LUCKNOW: Rejecting opposition charge that RSS was holding the reins of the government, Home Minister Rajnath Singh today said the Sangh never asks for the report card on the government's functioning.

The senior BJP leader said, "We are and will remain RSS volunteers. The organisation never permits creating differences on the basis of caste and religion.

"When we sit, we share with them as they have more experience, they never ask for the report card on our functioning," he said on opposition criticism that RSS was indirectly running the government.

After controversy over a recent three-day Sangh-government meet in New Delhi, the Home Minister had said that he and PM Narendra Modi are swayamsevaks -- and that is a "well-known" fact.
