‘Not a puppet of BJP’: RSS affiliate opens first Kashmir office
The Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh (BMS), an RSS affiliate, opened its first public office in Kashmir on October 21, 2026, in Pulwama. This marks a shift from the RSS's historically low profile in the region, as BMS seeks to operate openly amid changing conditions. The office aims to enhance the organization's visibility and engagement in Kashmir's socio-economic landscape.
