Sangh Parivar was in volved in the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi. The RSS took umbrage at this and<br />
sought an apology from him as an alternative for le gal action. "Our case has been a follow up of our legal<br />
notice." Mr Madhav said. The court summons to Mr Singh has been issued under Sections 499 and 500'<br />
of the CrPC (criminal defamation). "We decided to pursue the case after Mr Arjun Sihgh said in a statement<br />
that he would fight till the end and that he was will ing to make any sacrifice," Mr Madhav said. The<br />
RSS has authorised the 'prant sarsanghachalak' Darshan Lal to take care of the case and pursue it on the<br />
organisation's behalf, Mr Madhav added. (Statesman 30.12.04)<br />

RSS journal lauds PM on UNSC stand (26)<br />
New Delhi, Dec. 30: The RSS' journal, Panchajanya, for the first time, came out in open support of Prime<br />
Minister Manmohan Singh for his assertion that India will neither agree to redraw its map nor accept UN<br />
Secu rity Council permanent membership without veto power.'It can be mentioned that Dr Singh had given<br />
his first major interview to Panchjanya after taking over as the Prime Minister of the country. The RSS<br />
chief, Mr K.S. Sudershan, in a condolence message published in Pan chajanya went to state that former<br />
Prime Minister P.V. Narasimha Rao "would be always remembered in his tory for not allowing the security<br />
forces from enter ing Ayodhya till the estab lishment of the Ram Lalla idol in the makeshift temple at the<br />
disputed site." The RSS chief described Rao as a "great thinker and a lin guist." He also said that "like<br />
Chanakya, he (Narasimha Rao) could kill two birds with one stone." However, referring to the Opposition<br />
accusation that Dr Manmohan Singh was merely a "puppet on a string," the RSS mouthpiece stated, "No<br />
matter how politically weak he might me, Manmohan Singh has done two right things." The mouthpiece<br />
went on, "First ly, he made it categorically clear that there was no point accepting UN Security Council<br />
membership with out veto power." The RSS mouthpiece maintained, "Bharat aisi koi apman-janak sthiti<br />
swikar nahin karega (The Prime Minister made it clear that India will not accept such humiliating<br />
situation)." (Hindu 31.12.04)
