 "Modi praises RSS chief's speech")
Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat for raising "very relevant" issues of social reform in his annual Dussehra speech earlier Friday.
"Mohan Bhagwatji talked about important national issues in his speech. The issues of social reform he raised are very relevant today," Modi said in a tweet.
The prime minister added: "On the Sthapana Divas (founding day) of RSS, I extend my good wishes to all Swayamsevaks."
In his address in Nagpur, where the Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh is headquartered, Bhagwat called for self-reliance in economy and denounced caste discrimination.
