The RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat and Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma have spoken out against the killing of a Tripura student in BJP-ruled Uttarakhand last week. "Our investigation so far has found no evidence of racial discrimination or violence," the Dehradun Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Ajay Singh said. Reiterating his call for harmony, the RSS chief said eliminating discrimination was the first step towards social cohesion. RJD MP Manoj Jha asked whose ideology the RSS chief represented and which party drew inspiration from him. The blatant form of linguistic and racial discrimination that we are witnessing - when so much poison was being sown - he remained continuously silent.
