Karnataka government asks RSS chief to clarify legal registration status
The Karnataka government has asked RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat to send representatives to explain the legal status and registration of the organization. Home Minister Priyank Kharge cited the RSS's 2025-2026 report from its highest decision-making body, the Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha, which indicates the organization has a significant presence in Karnataka.
According to the report, the RSS operates 4,127 daily shakhas, 1,389 weekly milans, and 60 monthly mandalis across the state. The government's move seeks clarification on the organizational structure and legal standing of the RSS in Karnataka.
