"Suffering During Partition Should Not Be Forgotten": RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat

RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat said India's suffering at the time of Partition should not be forgotten and that it will go away when the Partition is "undone".

Hindu society should become capable in order to do good to the world, said Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh chief Mohan Bhagwat on Thursday.

Mr Bhagwat was addressing the launch ceremony of the book "Vibhajankalin Bharat Ke Sakshi" (Witnesses of Partition of India) by Krishnanand Sagar in Noida on Thursday. He said, "We should read the history and accept its truth. Hindu society should become capable in order to do good to the world."

"India's suffering at the time of Partition should not be forgotten. It will go away when the Partition of India is undone," Mr Bhagwat said.

"The ideology of India is to take everyone along. It is not an ideology that considers itself right and others wrong. However, the Islamic invaders' ideology was to consider others wrong and themselves right. The thinking of Britishers was also the same. This was the main cause of conflict in the past," he added.
