Chapitre 178: Vijay's Change of The Hindutva Ideology: Finalizing the Frigate Design

Vijay sat down in the study room and pondered about the Hindutva movement that Veer Savarkar proposed. The Hindutva movement he proposed was aimed at the total reform of Hindu society, attempting to correct all the wrongs in the culture.
