A political storm has erupted after Karnataka minister Priyank Kharge wrote an open letter to RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat demanding transparency on the organisation's legal status, finances and tax compliance. Referring to the RSS's vast organisational network and public outreach programmes, Kharge questioned how an entity of such scale continues to operate without formal registration while urging it to disclose donations, assets, expenditures and tax records. The move has revived a long-standing debate over accountability and transparency within the RSS as it celebrates its centenary year.
