Bharat’s nationhood didn’t begin in 1947, it's eternal: Bhagwat

Bengaluru, Nov 8 (UNI) Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat on Saturday declared that Bharat’s nationhood is civilisational and eternal, not a creation of 1947, asserting that India’s unity rests on Dharma and culture rather than constitutional or political constructs — remarks that are expected to trigger sharp reactions from Opposition parties.
Delivering the Sangh’s centenary address in Bengaluru, Bhagwat said Bharat existed long before modern statehood and will outlast political boundaries. “Our Rashtra did not come into being in 1947. It is eternal because it is based on Dharma, not on political authority or territory,” he said.
“The idea of Bharat is not limited to a constitution or a government. It is a Sanskritik Rashtra, a cultural nation bound by shared values and an eternal consciousness,” he added.
