The extraordinary rise of the BJP is not a story that could have been scripted alone. Its story is closely linked to Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, which started as a volunteer organisation, but whose right-wing values that once divided the nation, have also unified it today. It isn't surprising then that there has been a growing interest in the Sangh and the literature that it espouses. Like political journalist Nilanjan Mukhopadhyay says, "This is a rising force in Indian politics, and I think they [the RSS] are here for the long haul." The number of books being churned out since last year only proves so. We bring you our picks from some of the latest titles.
