Shiv Sena UBT Challenges Bhagwat’s Global Hinduism Message
Mohan Bhagwat recently spoke in New York about treating all people as part of one human family.
He said that someone who wants Muslims removed from India is not following true Hindu values.
Shiv Sena (UBT) said these words should also guide politics inside India.
Its newspaper, Saamana, accused BJP leaders and activists of encouraging religious and social division.
The editorial mentioned an alleged purification ceremony in Haldwani after a speech by Mallikarjun Kharge.
It also criticized the RSS for not speaking about civilian deaths in Gaza.
Shiv Sena (UBT) further raised allegations about money connected to the Ayodhya Ram Temple project.
The party said spiritual teachings should lead to fairness and less political division.
Shiv Sena (UBT) criticized RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat’s New York remarks promoting Hindu-Muslim coexistence.
Bhagwat said a Hindu who wants Muslims excluded from India is not truly Hindu and invoked “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam.”
The Saamana editorial argued that these tolerant principles conflict with alleged minority exclusion and polarization in India.
It cited an alleged BJP-linked purification ceremony in Haldwani after Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge’s address.
The editorial also questioned the RSS’s silence on Gaza and alleged financial irregularities connected to the Ayodhya Ram Temple project.

Quotes
Shiv Sena (UBT) Saamana editorial
Editorial published in Shiv Sena (UBT)'s mouthpiece Saamana
“Such is the extreme nature of religion, caste, and inhumane behaviour within the BJP. Do these antics fit into the Krishna Consciousness articulated by Bhagwat in America? Come to India and speak a bit about this as well.”

“The Hindu community in America donated heavily for the construction of the Ram Temple, which was looted in Ayodhya. Neither PM Modi nor the Sarsanghchalak commented on this loot.”
