Chronic criticism of RSS and Indian secularists: However the same they could not do with Hedgewar since they came to know about him only after RSS celebrated his birth centenary in 1989. It was the British invention in the aftermath of the RSS aggressive posture against the British colonialism during the Civil disobedience Movement led by Gandhi in 1930-32.

Five Decades of Ram Temple Controversy Later he went over to the Hindu Mahasabha (HM) mainly because Hedgewar did not accept his suggestion that the RSS be converted into a political party. That this was no aberration, and constituted the theoretical premise of the RSS, remains amply documented in the writings of its founder and of M.S.Golwalkar, who inherited the mantle of Sarsanghchalak from Hedgewar.
