MITHILA Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat addressed a gathering at Madison Square Garden in New York City on August 30. During his address, Bhagwat stated that unity and diversity are in India's DNA. He also remarked that India is known for unity in diversity, whereas the United States is known for plurality. The audience present at the venue included leaders from across different religions seated in the first row.

The protesting organisations voiced their opposition to the gathering and the RSS leadership, asserting that the RSS does not represent us during the demonstrations surrounding the Madison Square Garden event.
