The
UK-based Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh, known as a branch of the RSS, will be
celebrating its golden jubilee in Britain at Hertfordshire County ground in
Luten, about 45 km from London, on July 29-31, 2016. The RSS has branches in 34
countries. It is not present in Islamic nations, where it is not allowed to
function. Its most prominent branches are in the US and England. RSS chief
Mohan Bhagwat and other ideologues, Dattatreya Hosbole and Swamitra Gokhale,
head of Sangh’s foreign department, are the main organisers of the event. The
convention titled ‘Sanskriti Mahashivir’ (cultural meeting) will focus on Hindu
philosophy, vegetarianism and cow slaughter. Some reports indicate that
Hollywood star Leonardo DiCaprio and Richard Branson of Virgin
fame will share the dais with Bhagwat. DiCaprio will in all probability endorse
vegetarianism as well support a ban on cow slaughter. With the star attraction
being DiCaprio, the convention is expected to be attended by more than 10,000
people. g
