Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : Speaking at the "100 Years of Sangh Journey: New Horizons" lecture series, Bhagwat said, "The Income Tax Department and the court have noted that the RSS is a body of individuals, and hence, it is exempted from income tax.
49% : If you are unregistered, how are you getting the funds?" He further alleged that the RSS avoided registration to remain outside the ambit of legal and financial scrutiny, saying, "If they were registered, they'd have to pay taxes, comply with the Registrar of Companies, Society Registration Act, and NGO Act, and disclose details of domestic and foreign donations.
40% : Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat on Saturday clarified why the organisation does not pay income tax.
