PoliticsRSS chief’s US visit denounced as a ‘goodwill tour’ for Hindu nationalism

Activists accuse Hindu nationalists of using broad appeals to the Indian diaspora to obscure far-right politics. An event at New York City’s Madison Square Garden will feature RSS leader Mohan Bhagwat, prompting faith, advocacy and lower-caste organisations to warn that it could whitewash alleged discrimination and violence against minorities. Protests are expected outside the venue.
