Unity in Diversity: Gadkari's Vision Against Divisive Forces

Union Minister Nitin Gadkari has raised alarms over attempts to divide Indian society based on caste, language, and other factors. Speaking at a book launch, he emphasized the significance of unity for national progress.

Gadkari expressed concern over the political maneuvering where backwardness is being exploited as a political tool. He remarked, "Everyone claims to be backward," underlining the pervasive narrative that risks social fragmentation.

He further defended the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) against allegations of casteism, asserting its inclusive ethos and commitment to universal progress, irrespective of opposition.
