GEN. CARIAPPA, now Field-Marshal (*), told the Mangalore Shakha in 1959:
"RSS work is my heart's work." He added: "If Muslims can sing the praises
of Islam, what wrong is there if RSS sings the praises of Hinduism?" He
concluded: "My dear young men, don't be dislurbed by uncharitable comments
of interested persons. Dr. Hedgewar, the re- vered founder of this great
organisation, has set before you a bright example of selfless devotion to
the service of the motherland. Look ahead! Go ahead! This country is
standing in need of your services alone."
