The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS)-affiliated the Muslim Rashtriya Manch (MRM) is all set to hold an ‘international Roza Iftar’ party on Saturday. The function is likely to see participation from various countries excluding Pakistan High Commissioner Abdul Basit.
RSS dropped Basit’s name from the list after his insensitive remarks on the Pampore attack in which eight CRPF jawans were martyred.
Meanwhile, the RSS has rubbished rumours of conducting any Iftar party and dubbed them to be incorrect.
“Media reports on RSS conducting Iftar party are factually incorrect. RSS is not organising any such party,†the RSS said in a tweet.
The RSS further said the Muslim Rashtriya Manch (MRM), which is organising the Iftar party, is an independent Muslim organisation that aims at creating national awareness.
“RSS shares views of MRM on national issues & supports national awareness programs of MRM as any national cause. Indreshji, senior RSS functionary, keeps contact with MRM. He doesn’t hold formal position in MRM,†the RSS said in a series of tweets.
The MRM was formed in 2002 to bridge the divide between Hindus and Muslims and bring the two communities together.Â
