New Delhi [India], October 13 (ANI): Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Sunday called for a thorough investigation into “allegations of sexual abuse” against the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), following the suspected suicide of a young software engineer based in Kerala.
In a post on X, the Congress MP, citing his reported suicide message, claimed that the victim was abused by multiple members of the RSS and said that the leadership of the RSS must take immediate action on these allegations.
“The RSS must allow these allegations to be investigated fully. In his suicide message Anandu Aji alleged that he was abused again and again by multiple members of the RSS. He clearly stated that he was not the only victim and rampant sexual abuse is taking place in RSS camps. If true, then this is horrifying. Lakhs of young children and teenagers attend these camps all over India. The leadership of the RSS must take immediate action, they must come clean. Sexual abuse of boys is a scourge as widespread as that of girls. The code of silence around these unspeakably heinous crimes has to be broken,” Priyanka Gandhi posted on X.

Congress leader Pawan Khera also demanded for a “time-bound and thorough inquiry” to identify the perpetrators and hold them accountable, warning that failure to act would embolden those responsible for harming India’s youth.

Khera posted on X, “Anandu Aji was a young promising software engineer, full of possibilities, until the BJP and RSS got to him and drove him to suicide. In a scheduled post he left on Instagram, this is what he has revealed – that he faced severe sexual and physical abuse from members of the RSS and BJP as a 4-year old. That trauma, inflicted when he was just four years old, haunted him for life. Decades later, the scars proved too deep to bear and he took his own life. He named the RSS and BJP affiliates in his suicide note.”
“That is evidence substantial enough for the state government to conduct a timebound and thorough inquiry. It is important to establish the identities of these people who drove a young boy to death, and expose the murderous and treacherous instinct of these perpetrators. Anything short of that will only further embolden these wolves in sheep skin who are destroying the future of Indian youth in more ways than one,” the social media post added. (ANI)
