There was this talk that Bangalore was increasingly becoming like the West. That the youngsters had started aping the West and there was an indication that the culture of this once laid back city was changing.
Bangalore had grown leaps and bounds thanks to the invasion of the Information Technology sector. While many felt the change was required, several others felt that the IT industry was eroding the values and morals of the Indian youth.
The latest to step into the issue is the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh. Yes, the RSS has now set up IT shakhas. What does this IT shakha do? It is aimed at grooming the IT personnel towards the RSS way of thinking.
The coordinator of the shakha, Suresh Naik, said that this would involve the stimulation of the mind and the IT professionals will be taught to have a more nationalistic approach. The IT shakha will not be a typical RSS shakha involving exercise and games.
