Hindu nationalism
Once a fringe Indian ideology, Hindu nationalism is now mainstream, thanks to Modi’s decade in power
- While Mahatma Gandhi preached Hindu-Muslim unity a few decades earlier, the RSS advocated for transforming India into a Hindu nation
- RSS, which stands for Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, is paramilitary, right-wing group founded nearly a century ago
- Modi joined the political wing of the RSS in the late 1960s in their home state, Gujarat, when he was a teenager
