Nehru, Patel and the RSS.

“I am rather worried at the number of reports that I have received from various quarters about the recrudescence of the R.S.S in various forms and the growth of communal propaganda on their part.
Unless this is dealt with at its very inception it may grow to dangerous proportions.”

– Jawaharlal Nehru to Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel on 2 May ,1948.

Sardar Patel replied to Jawaharlal Nehru on 4 May 1948.
” Provincial governments have been warned about the dangers of the R.S.S activities, and asked to take preventive measures.
….The acquittal of R.S.S men in large numbers by the High Courts in U.P and Bombay had increased the Government’s difficulties”.
