Expressing concern over Bitcoin, RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat on Friday claimed that the "clandestine, uncontrolled currency" has the potential to destabilise the economy of all countries and pose serious challenges.

He was addressing the annual Vijayadashmi rally at Reshimbagh ground in Nagpur.

On the OTT platforms’ content, the RSS chief said: “In the backdrop of the pandemic, online education was introduced. School-going children are now hooked on mobile phones as a rule. The government must make efforts to create a content regulatory framework for OTT platforms,” he said.

Bhagwat pointed out: “In absence of prudence and a regulatory framework, it will become difficult to predict in which way and to what extent will this emerging phenomenon of contact with fair and unfair means sweep our society. However, to what extent anti-national forces wish to use these means is well-known. Therefore, the government must make efforts to regulate these affairs in no time.”
