Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS, Rāṣṭrīya Svayaṃsevak Saṅgh, Hindi pronunciation: [raːʂˈʈriːj(ə) swəjəmˈseːʋək səŋɡʱ],pronunciationⓘ, lit. 'National Volunteer Organisation')[7] is an Indian right-wing,[8][9] Hindu nationalist[10][11] volunteer[12] paramilitary organisation.[
The organisation aims to spread the ideology of Hindutva to "strengthen" the Hindu community and promotes an ideal of upholding an Indian culture and its civilizational values.[2][18] On the other hand, the RSS has been described as "founded on the premise of Hindu supremacy",[19] and has been accused of an intolerance of minorities, in particular anti-Muslim activities.[20]
During the colonial period, the RSS collaborated with the British Raj and played no role in the Indian independence movement.[21]
