"RSS was originally clearly inspired in its rhetoric and style of functioning by European fascism." The above debatable statement is best suited in the place of article on RSS. See the talk pages of RSS for more discussion on this.

The statement ought to be included in the Hindu Mahasabha article, since it explains why RSS splits off in that particular period. --Soman 15:39, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)
If you are sure that RSS got split off on the issue of its affinity towards Fascism alone, clearly mention that and then add the above statement. Otherwise it was looking as if it is a qualifier for RSS, while the article was on Hindu Mahasabha !

[edit]

There is a missing "]" in the following sentence:

Under the leadership of Mohandas Gandhi, the Congress led several nationwide campaigns of [[non-violence|non-violent] civil disobedience.

I would have corrected this simple typo myself, but the article is apparently protected or semi-protected (?) and I can't edit it directly. Thanks. —50.14.33.235 (talk) 16:18, 8 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Fix a typo in the "Establishment" section, second paragraph, "Although it opposed untouchability, the Mahasabha's orthodoxy on other matters concerning Hindu law and customs were a handicap in attracthing the support of a vast majority of Hindus."

Biased, wrong - Who wrote this garbage?

[edit]

Who wrote this article? The Hindu Mahasabha was not "decimated" by the 1937 provincial elections. They were not a large organization that was even in a position to contest many seats in the various provincial elections the way the Congress Party was. That said, the Mahasabha won more seats in the 1937 Sindh Legislative Assembly elections than did the Congress Party and they won a few seats in Bengal. Their performance was okay given the limited number of seats they were contesting anyway. Do not engage in revisionist history by suggesting the Mahasabha was a much larger, much more prominient organization that it really was. The information in this Wikipedia entry appears to be written by a supporter of the Indian National Congress Party. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Westwoodwizard (talk • contribs) 20:02, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Akhil Bharatiya Hindu Mahasabha → Akhil Bharat Hindu Mahasabha – WP:COMMONNAME. 4,500 results in Google News for "Akhil Bharat Hindu Mahasabha" and only 1,100 results for "Akhil Bharatiya Hindu Mahasabha". Modern scholars too use "Akhil Bharat Hindu Mahasabha".[1][2] Sdmarathe (talk) 22:22, 12 December 2018 (UTC) --Relisting. Andrewa (talk) 23:51, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose - For an organisation, we need to use its official name, if we can find it. If the older sources say Akhil Bharatiya, that tends to support the view that that was its official name. The "modern" sources can't change its name, even though they might bring in new forms and elevate them to the level of synonyms. (By the way, in daily parlance it was just called "Hindu Mahasabha", just like "Indian National Congress" is called "Congress" and "All-India Muslim League" is called "Muslim League".) What is worse, I think there was a splinter group in recent decades that called itself the "Akhil Bharat" Hindu Mahasabha. In short, the rationale given here for move doesn't fly. If you can find evidence of its official name, please bring it. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 07:44, 13 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - A search on the Election Commission of India web site brings up three pages. Even though the name is not consistent across these pages, the downloadable documents have the organisation's letterhead, naming it as "Akhil Bharat Hindu Mahasabha". So we can take it to be the official name, and the other one a variant. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 10:00, 14 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Relisting comment. Unfortunately if I were to close this, I'd need to discard the only !vote and probably the nomination as well. For an organisation, we need to use its official name... Neither the struck oppose nor the subsequent support show any understanding of the issues or policies involved. And the nom's googles are in error, and the hits are mostly (and perhaps entirely) the result of this. Andrewa (talk) 23:51, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Move to Hindu Mahasabha. It is the COMMONNAME. (Changed my !vote in the light of Andrewa's comment.) -- Kautilya3 (talk) 01:49, 20 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • That looks very good to me, thank you. It is trivially more concise, appears unambiguous (the proposed new name redirects here and has always referred to this topic, although there have been copyvio problems) and is common in sources (and appears unambiguous there too). I don't think I can !vote or close this now, but I would not object to an early close in view of the relisting and the fact that this latest proposal could even have been an uncontroversial technical move IMO. We just need an uninvolved admin (preferably an admin I think) to agree to do so (and otherwise I'm afraid we wait). And we move on. Andrewa (talk) 04:07, 20 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

Ambedkar on Hindu Mahasabha

[edit]

B.R Ambedkar , the Father of Indian constitution ,in his book Pakistan or Partition of India, raised concerns about the potential for Muslim aspirations to transform India into a Muslim state, which the author views as a threat to internal peace and stability in a future self-governing India. He suggested the necessity of a strong, exclusive Hindu organizations like Hindu Mahasabha , RSS to safeguard Hindu interests against islamists.

“The Hindus and the Moslems as we find them, their relations a bit bettered, perhaps a bit worsened. No realist can be blind to the probability that the extra-territorial designs and the secret urge goading on the Moslems to transform India into a Moslem state may at any time confront the Hindustani state even under self-government either with a Civil War or treacherous overtures to alien invaders by the Moslems. Then again there is every likelihood that there will ever continue at least for a century to come a danger of fanatical riots, the scramble for services, legislative seats, weight- ages out of proportion to their population on the part of the Moslem minority and consequently a constant danger threatening internal peace. To checkmate this probability which if we are wise we must always keep in view even after Hindustan attains the status of a self-governing country, a powerful and exclusive organization of Hindudom like the Hindu Maha Sabha will always prove a sure and devoted source of strength, a reserve force for the Hindus to fall back upon to voice their grievances more effectively than the joint Parliament can do, to scent danger ahead, to warn the Hindus in time against it and to fight out if need be any treacherous design to which the joint state itself may unwittingly fall a victim.” - Pakistan or Partition of India (Page 123) - BR Ambedkar
