On the issue of a tiff with the BJP, Bhagwat asserted that there are no differences or quarrels between the BJP and the Sangh, saying that there could be “difference of opinion” as attempts are made to achieve the goals of the country, but there was no “manbhed (heart-to-heart differences)”.
While addressing the gathering during a three-day lecture series to celebrate the centenary year of the RSS, Bhagwat said that the Sangh had good coordination with every government, not only the current one.
“There are opinions, but we discuss and form a consensus to decide whether it is against one’s opinion or in favour of it. I will follow the collective decision. When that nature is there, quarrel doesn’t exist. There can be matbhed (difference of opinion) here, but no manbhed (heart-to-heart disagreement). We need to move forward in one direction, and not different ones,” Bhagwat said.
“We have good coordination with every government, be it state or central. Not only this one. But there are systems that have some internal contradictions. The system (of governance) in general is the same, which was invented by the British so that they could rule. We need some innovation… even if the man in the chair is 100 per cent behind us, he has to do it, and he knows what the hurdles are. He may be able to do it, he may not. But we have to give him independence. There is no quarrel anywhere,” he added.
