‘Aurangzeb is no longer relevant’, RSS’s reaction on the grave dispute; What did it say about Nagpur violence?

The first reaction has come from the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) on the Aurangzeb controversy. When Akhil Bharatiya Prachar Pramukh Sunil Ambekar was asked whether Aurangzeb is relevant in today’s time, he said, “I think it is not relevant.”

On the Nagpur violence, he said, “Any kind of violence is not good for the health of the society, and I think the police have taken cognizance of it and hence they will investigate in detail.”

Violence erupted in Nagpur

For the past few days, Hindu organizations like Bajrang Dal and Vishwa Hindu Parishad have demanded the demolition of the tomb of Mughal ruler Aurangzeb. Meanwhile, on Monday, violent incidents took place at many places in Nagpur in response to the statewide demonstration of Hindu organizations like VHP and Bajrang Dal.

Five FIRs have been registered in this case and about 50 people have been detained. Those who damaged public property are being identified.
