RSS Press Release on Fake Survey on Munugode By-Polls

01 November 2022: A forged statement, entitled ‘RSS Internal Survey Report’ is being circulated on Social Media today. Released ostensibly in the context of the Munugode Bypolls on Nov 3, 2022, this report is signed by an unknown person and is clearly released with the malafide intention of confusing and misleading people. We would like to state that no such Survey has been conducted by the RSS and we condemn the mischievous act of publicizing this fake document.

Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh is a voluntary organization that has been working for the last 97 years with the primary aim of nation-building through individual character-building. RSS as an institution participates neither in politics nor in political Surveys. As elections are a crucial and critical part of democracy, RSS encourages every Indian citizen to exercise their franchise.

Of late, attempts have been made to denigrate a voluntary cultural organization such as the RSS, by people who have been resorting to fake, baseless, and implausible news stories and comments for political gains. These actions do not befit the position of any individual or institution of responsibility. It is nothing but deriding and abusing democratic and social values.

We hereby request the Government and officials to identify the persons responsible for such fake documents and the news emanating out of it and take stringent, legal measures against them.
