The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, also known as the Sangh or the RSS, is a right wing Hindu nationalist organization in India. It was started in 1925 by K.B. Hedgewar. The RSS is active throughout India and also abroad as the Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh, "Hindu Volunteers' Union". The RSS is the largest volunteer organization in India. Their general philosophical outlook is cultural nationalism and Integral humanism aimed at preserving the spiritual and moral traditions of India.

The primarily goals of the RSS are a revival of Hindu tradition and to be an advocacy group for Hindus, whom they feel are being slowly marginalized due to alleged "negationism" in India and the acts of appeasement against them from the left-wing political parties and politicians in favor of extremist elements of other religious denominations. Their core ideology is based on Integral humanism and Hindutva, a form of Hindu Nationalism.

Their views towards minarities -

According to RSS a Hindu can be anyone living in Indian subcontinent. This includes Muslims and Christians. The RSS believes that Hinduism is not a religion but a way of life. The proclaimed purpose of the organization is "serving the nation and its people in the form of God - Bharata Mata (Mother India) and protecting the interests of the Hindus in India".

Historically, the RSS has had several Dalit and Middle-Caste members in their fold, several of whom are in key positions along their rank-and-file.
The RSS has recently expressed concern over caste-based political and social conflicts, they have urged Hindus to "get rid of this evil at the earliest"[12].Their resolution adopted at a national executive meeting said:

"Hindu society should take all necessary measures to ensure entry and access to every Hindu, irrespective of his caste, to their homes, temples, religious places, public wells, ponds, and other public places..Hindu society will have to get rid of this evil at the earliest.-

RASHTRIYA SWAYAMSEVAK SANGH was founded by Dr. K B Hedgewar @Nagpur for the defence & development of Hindus.
It is warm towards all minorities who regard India as their motherland.
But for those with Extra Territorial Loyalties to Pakistan , or Italy, Portugal, BanglaDesh, it spells NEMESIS.
