RSS pays homage to Pak-born scribe for 'contribution to nation'
RSS began its national conference in Gujarat's Bhuj on Sunday with a tribute to, among others, the late Pakistan-born Canadian journalist Tarek Fatah, a strident critic of the Pakistani religious and political establishment. Tarek Fatah, who died last April, received a glowing mention from the Hindutva fountainhead as one of those who had made "a great contribution to the nation and society at large." Former cricketer Bishan Singh Bedi, who died in October, was also on RSS's posthumous honours list.
