Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh
The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) is an Indian right-wing Hindutva volunteer paramilitary organization. Founded on September 27, 1925, its initial aim was to provide character training and instill "Hindu discipline" to unite the Hindu community. It is the progenitor of the Sangh Parivar, a family of Hindu nationalist organizations that includes the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
