New Delhi, Jan. 22: The Congress is spending sleepless nights in Karnataka,
where it had watched its government fall to the BJP last year.
âWe are now afraid of losing not only our voters but our party rank and file to
the Hindutva forces,â said a general secretary. The warning was sent to the
bosses in Delhi last week, when Bangalore was plastered with<b> RSS-BJP posters </b> of a âHindu utsavamâ to mark the centenary of the Sangh ideologue M. S. Golwalkar.
And, some of these carried the names of Congress leaders.
The âincriminatingâ posters reached Delhi, from where defence minister A. K.
Antony (in picture), in charge of Karnataka affairs, reportedly warned the MLAs
and office-bearers whose names figured on the publicity material. They were
asked to stay away from RSS-BJP activities.

I think this is a bad idea for RSS to associate with BJP like this. Instead of supporting hindus in all the parties, RSS is supporting BJP as a hindu party, which gives the motivation for other parties to divide hindus and appease minority. RSS should encouraged hindus in all parties. Example, ex-CM Dharam Singh. This guy is as hindu as anybody else, he visited shani temple in TN on some occasion when he was CM. Had RSS not been supporting BJP, Dharam singh might behave more hindu, instead of attending pro-saddam rally.
