Shashi Tharoor Recounts His Meeting With PM Narendra Modi | The NDTV Dialogues

Few politicians today have the decency and grace to recognise positives in opposition figures and express their appreciation. Shashi Tharoor is one of them.

Today 2nd October as anyone knowing India and Gandhi knows well is celebrated as Gandhi Jayanthi( Gandhi's birth date is celebrated quite widely among all peace-loving folks around the world in his memory. ) BJP and RSS are not very fond of Gandhi, which is an understatement. The fact that RSS was instrumental in Gandhi's murder is a known fact. And the RSS and their general hatred of Gandhi is also well known and has been inculcated among their followers. And to any state Government that has banned RSS marches on 2nd October is the right thing to do. And that at this point is very valid indeed. PFI and all the affiliates banned is the right thing, given all the critical aspects, that have come to light. Banning any extremist religiously bigoted, groups and syndicated organizations is the most sensible thing that any sensible state and central government ought to do. Banning RSS at any point by any BJP-led state is obviously not going to happen. Those who don't understand any of these, need to read or listen and learn what fascism is, as well as the key signatures of fascism or the likes of such.
