Neemuch (MP): Known for his RSS bashing, Congress leader Digvijay Singh on Thursday alleged that the organisation gives training in the making of bombs.
He told reporters that he was saying this on the basis of incidents that had taken place in the state in the past.
Singh said when BJP was in power in Madhya Pradesh in 1992, a bomb had exploded here in the office of the RSS’ Seva Bharati and one person was killed in it.
When the case in this connection was reopened after the Congress came to power in 1993, the Principal of a saffron-run school in Khargaon was arrested, he said.
The Congress General Secretary said after a blast in Mhow in the state in 2004 those arrested had said that they were given training by RSS in bomb making.
He said the BJP always supports fundamentalist organisations.
RSS leader passes away: Meanwhile, RSS Maharashtra Prant Sanghchalak Kacharu Shankar Sahane died at private hospital here today, family sources said. Sahane, 73, is survived by a son and daughter.
He had joined the Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh quite early in life and worked hard to connect rural masses and agrarian community to the Sangh. A well known historian, he taught history at a college.
RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat called Sahane’s family and expressed grief over his demise. (PTI)
