Ahead of the Uttar Pradesh polls, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh chief Mohan Bhagwat has called for a meeting with frontal organisations of the Sangh to sort out problems they have with the government. Kisan Sangh is angry, for instance, that the minimum support price has not been raised in any meaningful way. The hike in compensation to farmers following natural disasters was also not discussed with it.

Similarly, Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh is unhappy with 100 per cent foreign direct investment in defence, and Vishva Hindu Parishad has too long a list of grievances. Starting August 29, Bhagwat will meet the outfits to ensure participation in the polls.
