Thank you for respecting the hardwork of this author. About the Book Narendra Modi, the present Prime Minister of India, is a true blue RSS (Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh or National Volunteers Organization) swayamsevak or volunteer. 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.

    SEPTEMBER 2020 Can Communal Violence Fuel an ISIS Threat in India? An Analysis of ‘Voice of Hind’ Prithvi Iyer and Maya Mirchandani Following its defeat in territories it previously held, ISIS is seeking other demographies like India. Photo: Getty Images/Sandipa Malakar. Attribution: Prithvi Iyer and Maya Mirchandani, “Can Communal Violence Fuel an ISIS Threat in India? An Analysis of ‘Voice of Hind’”, ORF Special Report No. 118, September 2020, Observer Research Foundation. Observer Research Foundation (ORF) is a public policy think tank that aims to influence formulation of policies for building a strong and prosperous India. ORF pursues these goals by providing informed and productive inputs, in-depth research, and stimulating discussions. ISBN 978-93-90159-98-7 © 2020 Observer Research Foundation. All rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced, copied, archived, retained or transmitted through print, speech or electronic media without prior written approval from ORF. Can Communal Violence Fuel an ISIS Threat in India? An Analysis of ‘Voice of Hind’ ABSTRACT In early 2020 the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) published an India- centric propaganda material called Voice of Hind. This special report examines the first issue of the publication, which openly recruits Indian Muslims by manipulating their fears and grievances that have emerged in the wake of certain political developments in the country. The analysis uses theories of social psychology, inter-group conflict discourse, and communications theory to provide a conceptual framework in understanding how ISIS leverages the sense of alienation amongst the Indian Muslim community to radicalise them. Even as ISIS has so far failed to make significant inroads into India, the State must protect India’s secular cohesion, especially in times when digital communication has created echo chambers and have the power to propagate and amplify dangerous and violent actions in the real world.

  • Indian False Flag Operations
    Center for Global & Strategic Studies Islamabad INDIAN FALSE FLAG OPERATIONS By Mr. Tauqir – Member Advisory Board CGSS Terminology and Genealogy The term false flag has been used symbolically and it denotes the purposeful misrepresentation of an actor’s objectives or associations. The lineage of this term is drawn from maritime affairs where ships raise a false flag to disguise themselves and hide their original identity and intent. In this milieu, the false flag was usually used by pirates to conceal themselves as civilian or merchant ships and to prevent their targets from escaping away or to stall them while preparing for a battle. In other cases, false flags of ships were raised to blame the attack on someone else. A false flag operation can be defined as follows: “A covert operation designed to deceive; the deception creates the appearance of a particular party, group, or nation being responsible for some activity, disguising the actual source of responsibility.” These operations are purposefully carried out to deceive public about the culprits and perpetrators. This phenomenon has become a normal practice in recent years as rulers often opt for this approach to justify their actions. It is also used for fabrication and fraudulently accuse or allege in order to rationalize the aggression. Similarly, it is a tool of coercion which is often used to provoke or justify a war against adversaries. In addition, false flag operations could be a single event or a series of deceptive incidents materializing a long-term strategy. A primary modern case of such operations was accusation on Iraqi President Saddam Hussain for possessing weapons of mass-destruction ‘WMD’, which were not found after NATO forces, waged a war on Iraq.
