K prabhakar bhatt on pahalgam: Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) senior leader K.K. Prabhakar Bhat, citing the recent terrorist attack in Pahalgam, suggested that ‘Hindus should keep swords and knives in the house for self -defense’. In an event on Monday in Manjeshwar’s Worky in Kasargod district, Bhat said, “Every Hindu’s house should have a sword.

He also urged women to keep a knife with normal goods in their bags. The RSS leader claimed that a ‘license’ is not required to keep a six -inch knife. He said, ‘If you are out after evening, then there is every possibility of attack. Do not beg to the attackers – just show the knife and they will run away. Referring to the previous communal tensions, Bhat said, ‘Earlier Hindus used to run away during Hindu-Muslim clashes. Now it is changing. We should stand up and everyone should keep a sword at home. No official statement has been received from the police so far on this comment.

‘Do not go to the funeral of terrorists, nor give place in the cemetery’

Apart from this, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) senior officer Indresh Kumar condemned the Jammu’s Pahalgam terror attack on Tuesday (29 April 2025) and appealed to the Muslims not to go to the funeral of the terrorists nor give them a place in the grave. He said that the terrorist has no religion and it is wrong to connect them with religion. He told reporters, “When namaz is offered for him, a grave is given or attended in the funeral, it indicates that they are representatives of a religion, which is completely wrong.”

‘Pakistan is now on the verge of breaking up’

Kumar said that if this rigorous decision had been taken 20–30 years ago, the situation in Jammu and Kashmir would have been different. He proposed to build a memorial in Pahalgam, so that the barbarity of Pakistan could be highlighted. He said that Pakistan is now on the verge of breakdown and many parts including Sindh, Balochistan, Pakistan occupied Kashmir are seeking freedom. He called upon Indian Muslims to renounce vote bank politics and think in the national interest.
