Politicians are like prostitutes: Sudarshan

Press Trust of India - Indian Express: "Close on the heels of the upheaval in BJP which led to the party president L.K. Advani's resignation and subsequent withdrawal, RSS chief K.S. Sudarshan on Saturday lashed out at politicians likening politics to prostitutes.

“We have kept ourselves away from politics as salvation cannot be attained through it. Politics keeps changing every minute. Like a prostitute who keeps changing her form, politics also keeps changing its appearance. There is no permanent element in politics,” he told RSS workers.

The remarks assume significance as they come close on the heels of the four days of crisis in BJP after RSS took a tough stance on Advani's statements in Pakistan, including his praise for Pakistan founder Mohammad Ali Jinnah. "
