Guest guest Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 Untouchability breeding conversion: Bhagwat Shimla November 7, 2009 Prevalent untouchability in society is breeding conversion and a 'samras samaj' (casteless society) is possible only by stamping out the menace, RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat said on Saturday. "Discriminations (based on caste and religion) do not end even after converting to Christianity or Islam hence conversion is no solution to end discriminations," Bhagwat said, addressing a social integration meeting here. Addressing members of varied castes, the RSS chief stressed the need for unity and appealed audience to inspire those in their neighbourhood to fight against social discrimination. "This cannot be achieved by bhasan (speech) but by good behaviour," Bhagwat said. To promote unity in the society, he suggested, all communities shall together celebrate birth/death anniversaries of great saints of all religions. Bhagwat said he would ask RSS regional heads to organise an 'All Religion Unity Meeting' at block level. The RSS chief is currently on a three-day visit to the state. http://indiatoday.intoday.in/site/Story/69832/India/Untouchability+breeding+conversion:+Bhagwat.html?page=0Thanks & Regards,Sudhir SrinivasanB.Arch, Dip.ID, Dip.CAD, Dip.PM, AIIA, IIID, ARIAI| Architect | Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
