So the RSS and the VHP claim. Actually, they have a clear Hindutva supremacist fascist political agenda. There are plenty of studies of the RSS and VHP and the whole Sangh Parivar available. A good start would probably be "Khaki Shorts and Saffron Flags" by Tapan Basu et al. which studies the politics of Hindutva. The Sangh Parivar constitutes the primary threat to secular democracy in India today. -- Question everything -- Karl Marx ------------------------------------------------------- Goanet recommends, and is proud to be associated with, 'Domnic's Goa' - A nostalgic romp through a bygone era.
