New Delhi: The Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) and Congress leader Digvijay
Singh Thursday traded barbs over a photograph showing him sharing
the dais with RSS leaders.
While the RSS accused Singh of practicing "vote-bank and communal"
politics, the Congress general secretary hit back, saying the
Sangh should explain whether it ever praised him as it had done
Anna Hazare in a recent book published by it.
"This recent expose of the photograph is the reaffirmation of the
age old communal politics that Congress has been indulging in
right from the beginning," RSS spokesperson Ram Madhav told
reporters.
Digvijay Singh however thanked the RSS and BJP for "doing the
research".
"This Virat Hindu Sammelan was called by Kanchi seer
Shankaracharyaji and I had gone in that conference with the
permission of Congress leadership," he said.
