Nagpur: Demanding equal representation of women in Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, Bhumata Brigade leader Trupti Desai on Wednesday wrote a letter to Mohan Bhagwat.
She has also sought an appointment from the latter.
“The Bharatiya Janata Party was elected to power on the basis of women’s votes. Women should be allowed to join the RSS to which the BJP is affiliated,” she had said earlier.
Desai had said she would soon write to RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat on the issue as part of her campaign for gender equality.
Desai has been in the news for months for leading a campaign to secure women’s entry into the Shani Shingnapur temple in Ahmednagar district and the Trimbakeshwar Temple in Nashik district.
‘Bhumata Brigade’ reportedly has 4,000 members.
Desai has said she will now start a campaign on April 28 for women’s entry into the Haji Ali Dargah in Mumbai followed by the Sabarimala temple in Kerala.
