Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh chief Mohan Bhagwat came in defence of a functionary of the organisation, Dattatreya Hosabale, who had advocated for keeping the doors of dialogue open with Pakistan.

Bhagwat clarified that Hosabale's remarks referred to the people of Pakistan and that the RSS organisation stands in line with the Centre's policy when it comes to Pakistan.

He also said that the organisation does not have an independent foreign policy.

Bhagwat added that in future, if India defeats Pakistan beyond repair, it will have to take their people into Bharat's fold or let them live there peacefully, and for both these scenarios, 'the doors of dialogue need to be kept open.'

He also compared India to Hitler, saying 'We are not like Hitler. That is not our nature or our way. So we need to keep some doors open.'
