We are with PM Modi: RSS tells Parivar

August 09, 2016 08:30

For the second time in as many days, RSS has condemned violence against Dalits by cow vigilante groups. The statement follows Prime Minister Narendra Modi's remarks against cow vigilantism this weekend, including that the majority of gau rakshaks were anti-social elements, reports the Times of India.

"Taking law into their own hands and mistreating people from their own samaaj (social group) is not only injustice but downright inhuman conduct," RSS general secretary Bhaiyyaji Joshi said in a statement on Monday.

He added that violence against Dalits needed to be condemned in the "strongest terms". "We ask all sections of society to be wary of elements who are disturbing trust and amity. We expect the administration to ensure the punishment of individuals and groups who are making a mockery of the law."
