# RSS invites Dhankhar for Vijayadashami, Congress says ecosystem fighting itself 2026-10-15T05:47:05+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 2 independent outlets The RSS has invited former vice president Jagdeep Dhankhar as a special guest for its Vijayadashami celebrations at Nagpur’s Reshimbagh ground on 20 October, which also marks the conclusion of its centenary year. RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat will address the event. Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh used the invite to criticise the government, saying Dhankhar still has not been allotted the official residence he is entitled to since abruptly resigning in July 2025. Ramesh posted that ‘the ecosystem is fighting with itself and falling apart’. Dhankhar had resigned as vice president and Rajya Sabha chairperson citing health reasons, saying he was following medical advice under Article 67(a) of the Constitution. The event also includes Israel’s consul general for central-west India, Yaniv Revach, among the invitees. ## Indian Opinion Analysis Both bhaskar.com and tv9hindi.com carry identical facts, attributing Congress leader Jairam Ramesh’s barb about a ‘fighting ecosystem’ and the RSS invitation to former vice president Jagdeep Dhankhar for the Vijayadashami event on 20 October. Neither outlet adds its own judgement or omits the other side: each mentions the RSS invitation, Dhankhar’s medical resignation in July 2025, and the unresolved government housing. The coverage is uniform straight agency-style reporting with no discernible slant. The implication is that the story’s political charge, the tension between the RSS gesture and the government’s inaction on housing, is being carried whole by both, leaving space for readers to assess the ‘ecosystem’ clash themselves. The concrete next point is the event on 20 October, where RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat will address the centenary-year finale. ## Coverage Coverage: 2 sources, 2 neutral - bhaskar.com (neutral report) Leads with the invitation fact, quotes Congress criticism neutrally - tv9hindi.com (neutral report) Leads with invitation, adds Israel consul invited, reproduces Congress charge without slant This brief was synthesised by AI from the 2 sources linked above, so one read covers every framing they carry.
