West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari says the state will have 1,000 schools run by the RSS within a year. Multiple outlets report that he frames this as part of a broader plan for school expansion.
The reports also highlight conditions attached to cooperation with educational institutions. Scroll.in says Adhikari threatens to stop government aid to institutes that do not agree to sing the full version of “Vande Mataram.” Other coverage, including The Economic Times and Times of India, focuses more on the goal and timeline for RSS-run schools, without the same emphasis on the aid-and-song condition.
Taken together, the accounts present a common claim about the target number and timeframe, while differing in how much they stress the policy-related threats regarding government support and cultural requirements.
