New Delhi: In this episode of Central Hall, Kapil Sibal discusses the shifting role of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) through the years with three experts – Delhi University (DU) professor Apoorvanand, The WIre’s editor Seema Chishti and author Dhirendra Jha.

Among other things, the experts analyse why the RSS thinks that India was not fully independent in 1947, why it throws its weight behind the Ram temple issue, and why – often – it ends up mildly criticising Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
