There's no "argument from authority". The OP said he was not Indian; and I replied I was. Maybe you should try to read your own Wikipedia link?

Instead of unnecessary blather, why not post some informative links? Educate us all, instead of trolling from behind a keyboard.

RSS is no more "violently anti-muslim" than the Congress Party is "violently anti-Sikh". Read up about the 1984 riots, and learn something for a change.

There's the not minor point that Congress has formally apologized for its role in the 1984 riots, while Modi and the BJP have offered none for their role in 2002, instead comparing the murdered Muslims to puppies that sometimes happen to get run over by cars.

What good is an apology from Congress when they stonewall any attempts for an independent inquiry into the 1984 riots and still harbour known instigators and accomplices at a high level within the party?

On the other hand, several senior BJP officials were tried and convicted for their part in the 2002 riots.

I would say the congress party is/was more anti-sikh than RSS is anti-muslim.

Sure they put a sikh in power, but he was just a puppet figure in recent years in taking no action.

I very much remember 1984 riots being a Sikh and being there during it.

I welcome modi as a change, NRI Sikhs definitely despise the gandhis
