RSS vs Karnataka govt: Is the regulation of private organisations in public spaces a hasty decision?

Karnataka witnessed a political flashpoint this past week after Minister Priyank Kharge sought a ban on the activities of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh in government‑owned premises in the State.

While the government has clarified that it is neither intending to ban the RSS nor singled it out in the GO, it is being argued that such rules may be used selectively by those in power, while also stifling the already narrow space for protests by civil‑society organisations.
