Madurai, India - The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh chief K S Sudarshan yesterday alleged that the CIA of USA with the help of NGOs was indulging in religious conversions in India.
Delivering the special address at a symposium on "Empowerment of Hindu Intelligentsia" organised in connection with RSS founder M S Golwakar Birth Centenary Celebrations here, he claimed that US government had allocated 20 billion US dollars for the NGOs to work and convert people to Christiany.
"The CIA planned to establish one church in every post office area. The churches would be established walking distance and voice distance away," he said.
He said the NGOs planned to setup schools, hospitals etc to veer the rural people away from their Hindu moorings.
He alleged that the missionaries were also misleading the tribals, with whom they worked, by saying that Aryans had invaded their land.
He said Muslims were trying to spread their religion by migrating to new areas, infiltration and Jehad. They had become majority in some of the districts.
Journalist Arun Shourie said the domestic media was not writing about the full preparedness of China along India's borders, or about Pakistan trying build mosques madrasas along the borders, and was giving importance to Pakistan's view or terrorists' views.
The RSS should counter the "anti-hindu anti-Indian culture press" only through alternative way of communicating directly to the people, he said.
