Bengaluru: Priyank Kharge challenged the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) to open its books to public scrutiny on Sunday, questioning its funding, expenditure and accountability.
Kharge asked who funds the RSS, where the money comes from, how it is spent, who audits the accounts and who is ultimately accountable.
