If the RSS said that, the RSS is a bunch of hypocrites.

The RSS was founded in support of the Fascists in Europe. it is the parent organiztion of the BJP, Shiv Sena, and the Vishwa Hindu Parishad, among many others under its umbrella.

It’s the organization that published a booklet on how to implicate Christians and other minorities in false criminal cases.

Are they afraid of competition in the caste/religion/ethnic hate market?

If the RSS said that, the RSS is a bunch of hypocrites.

Narendra Modi: He was born in Vadnagar, a town in the northern Mehsana district of Gujarat, to a Hindu family belonging to the Ghanchi OBC community. As a young man, he joined the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh. He became a full-time worker and organiser for it, and was later nominated by it to be a representative on the Bharatiya Janata Party.

He joined the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh in the year 1974 and was involved in the anti-corruption New Beginning Movement.

He joined the Bharatiya Janata Party in the early 1980s. He helped maintain the relations between the RSS and the BJP. In 1988 he became the General Secretary of the Gujarat State BJP unit. He is believed to be a protégé of Lal Krishna Advani, who is a senior leader of the Bharatiya Janata Party himself. Advani has praised Modi on numerous occasions, referring to him as "a leader who, after being subjected to a malicious and prolonged campaign of vilification, has been able to impress even his critics with his determination, single-minded focus, integrity and a wide array of achievements in a relatively short time".

He was believed to be a back-room operator for the political party in the beginning, but during the elections he portrayed himself as a pro-Hindu leader and campaigned on a platform of Hindutva.

Rise to leadership

In 1995 he was made the National Secretary of the party, in charge of five major states in India.

In October 2001, he was asked by the party to head the government in Gujarat. In 2001, Gujarat was facing problems because of several natural calamities having struck in the preceding years, including the massive Gujarat Earthquake in January 2001. Modi re-organised the government's administrative structure and embarked upon a massive cost-cutting exercise in order to compensate for economic losses.
