Hinduism inclusive of every person: Mohan Bhagwat

November 05, 2017 20:35

Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh chief Mohan Bhagwat on Sunday said Hindu religion is inclusive of every person and accepts them with their separate identities.

"Hindu religion is inclusive of every person. It embraces everybody while keeping their identities intact," Bhagwat said at an event, organised for martyrs' families in Jaipur.

"All of us are Hindus. Our country is a Hindu state. Hindu word is not made up of any language, worship idea or any specific class. It is the method of living with the motto of "Guest is prime", accepting and respecting the people with diverse culture. The word is given by the world and India is fortunate to be the only one recognised by it," he added.

Bhagwat said it is unfortunate for our country that creed differences continued for years, leaving a major part of the nation behind.
