RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat said today that those uncomfortable with India's rise globally were spreading false narratives by distorting history to create tension in the society.

"We have always been one. Before 1857, there was Hindu-Muslim amity in the country. But the English, in 1905 formed the Muslim League and spread radicalism in the society. Some people are still continuing it," Bhagwat said.

Addressing volunteers here, the RSS chief said the society had to be made aware of this "anti-India ploy". He asked Sangh works to promote harmony.

He also emphasised there was no place for egos and only the dedication of volunteers would take the organisation ahead. He asked the Sangh volunteers to stay united and move forward like team players.

The RSS chief said the volunteers should serve the society selflessly and at no point think they are bigger than the organisation.

Bhagwat was speaking on the last day of an 'Interaction Meet' here at the Trade Facilitation Centre here in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Lok Sabha constituency.

He advised volunteers to follow the path of truth and stick to the core values to remain as a real Swayamsevaks.

Those present included senior BJP leaders like Om Mathur, Mahendra Nath Pandey, Sunil Bansal and Laxman Acharya among others.

Earlier Bhagwat silenced his critics who questioned his remarks on the Indian Army, saying that nationalists do not care about controversies and do not part in meaningless discussions. “Instead, they carry out their nation-building duties without any expectations,” he said.

Speaking at a seven-day ‘Sangh Samagam’ in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s parliamentary constituency Varanasi, Bhagwat said that “nationalism of RSS is not linked with any government or political party”.

Even though the RSS had issued a clarification soon after the controversy erupted over Bhagawat’s remark on Army, it was for the first time that the RSS Chief himself spoke on the row that followed.

“We are nationalist and we do not answer to our critics. Instead we just concentrate to continue doing our good work to strengthen the country without any expectation from any corner,” he told swayamsevaks.
