mohan bhagwat

Mohan Bhagwat is an Indian politician and the current Chief of the Hindu nationalist organization – the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). He took charge in March 2009 as the successor to K. S. Sudarshan.

After taking over as RSS chief, he set 75 years as the age limit for offices across the Parivar. Senior BJP leader and a RSS member L K Advani was told that the 2009 general election would be his last chance for power; after the defeat, the gerontocracy was politely but firmly sidelined.
In June 2015, the government of India ordered the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) to provide round-the-clock protection to Bhagwat. At Z+ VVIP security cover, he is one of the most protected Indians today.
