RSS Leader Mohan Bhagwat announced that he would release a book on Mahatma Gandhi as the “biggest Hindu patriot”

On 1 January, Modi Government Ministers Prahlad Patel and V. Muraleedharan will participate in the release ceremony of the book ‘Making of a Hindu Patriot’ by authors J.K. Bajaj and M.D. Srinivas, at Rajghat here. In February of this year, Bhagwat also published a book calling for the creation of Gandhi’s dream of India.
