RSS tried to communicate with Indira Gandhi

According to the book’s contents, the RSS made attempts to establish a line of communication with Indira Gandhi despite the severe political crackdown and restrictions imposed during the Emergency era.

The book’s claims have caused a stir in political circles, as it suggests a previously undisclosed interaction between the RSS and the Congress government during one of the most contentious phases in India’s political history.
