New Delhi, Dec 26: The RSS has criticized MNS activists for attacking north Indians in Mumbai.

Addressing RSS workers here on Friday, Dec 25, RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat said, "RSS was against the 'politics of votes' and political parties should not divide society on caste and communal lines for petty political gain."

"India was one and every citizen could go to any part for a livelihood and for settling in," he said without naming MNS president Raj Thackeray.

Bhagwat said India was one and every citizen could go to any part for a livelihood and for settling in.

He said RSS was concerned over reports of alleged Line of Control violations by China and Pakistan on the northern and western borders.

"It is unfortunate that the Indian government's response to the bullying tactics of the bordering has always been grossly inadequate," Bhagwat said.
