More importantly, he is a product of prachaarak system, a unique institution of RSS. More than his election campaigns, his conduct after becoming the Prime Minister really tells us how a responsible RSS worker and prachaarak responds to any responsibility he is entrusted with. His rise is also illustrative example of submission by author in this book that RSS has been able to design a system that can create ‘extraordinary achievers out of ordinary people’. When the first edition of Secrets of RSS was released, air was thick with motivated propaganda about ‘Saffron terror’ and RSS was the favourite whipping boy as the face of ‘Hindu fascism’. Now as the second edition is ready for release, environment has transformed radically.

Symbolic Encounters: Identity, Performativity and Democratic Subjectivity in Contemporary India Sruthi Muraleedharan Thesis submitted for the degree of PhD in Politics and International Studies 2019 Department of Politics and International Studies Faculty of Law and Social Sciences SOAS, University of London Abstract This thesis focuses on symbolic politics as ‘meaning-making’ and a ‘co- constitutive’ form of representation. It seeks to analyze subject formation in the context of symbolic political mobilizations in contemporary India. By symbolic politics, I mean political rituals, cultural symbols, commemorative memorials and spectacular performances. Through deploying Bourdieusian idea of symbolic power and Butler’s framework of performativity and subject formation, this thesis contributes to rethinking of the relationship between symbolic politics and subject formation.
