<p>Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday&nbsp;alleged that the idea of demonetisation came from a &quot;particular ideologue of the RSS&quot; and that the organisation was a big influence on prime minister Narendra Modi.</p>

<p>&quot;Do you know&nbsp;where the idea of notebandi &nbsp;(demonetisation) came from? It was not the RBI, not Arun Jaitley, it was not an officer in the finance&nbsp;ministry. It was a particular ideologue of the RSS. The RSS presses an idea into the prime&nbsp;minister&#39;s mind and PM launches that idea,&quot; Rahul Gandhi said.</p>

<p>Rahul Gandhi also&nbsp;accused the BJP of trying to capture the institutions of India and the RSS of trying to put its people into every institution.&nbsp;</p>

<p>&quot;BJP is trying to capture the institutions of India. The RSS is trying to put its people in every institution. You must have heard Mohan Bhagwat&#39;s remarks,&quot; the Congress president said.</p>

<p>Rahul Gandhi&#39;s remarks&nbsp;come in the context of RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat&#39;s statement yesterday that the RSS had the power to form an army within three days while the Indian army would take six months to prepare society.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Mohan Bhagwat had said, &quot; If the Constitution allows and if any need arises the organisation will form an army in three days&quot;.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Yesterday, Rahul Gandhi had tweeted that Mohan Bhagwat&#39;s remarks were an insult to every Indian, flag, and soldier.&nbsp;</p>
