RSS is a hindu organization involved in protecting the hindu religion. During initial days the main objective was training young children in 'Yoga' and self protection with batons, which they still continue. But as always with any religious organization, it soon associated itself with politicians or vice-versa. They took the responsibility for killing 'Mahatma Gandhi' as the later was supportive of muslims during partition. Since India has been ruled by 'Mughals' some compassionate rulers like 'Akbar' and other staunch islamist who converted hindus into muslims forcbly like 'Auranjeb' - followed by the British rule during which chirstianity spread,the hindu organizations like VHP and BJP were born. The motive during its inception was quite innocent but these days they train the youth in handling arms and making bombs.
But is this really what hinduism wants or is it a political party trying to increase its vote bank by tapping into the religious sentiments of ignorant people, I am not sure.
