What is the full form of RSS
(1) RSS: Really Simple Syndication
RSSstands for Really Simple Syndication. It is also known as Rich Site Summary.
RSS is a web feed that allows users and applications to access updates to websites in a standardized, computer-readable format.
These feeds can, for example, allow a user to keep track of many different websites in a single news aggregator. The news aggregator will automatically check the RSS feed for new content, allowing the list to be automatically passed from website to website or from website to user.
Many online applications use RSS technology behind the scenes when presenting content within their applications or when sending content to users.
RSS uses the markup language XML, which informs the characteristics of RSS. Feeds divide up things like the title, description and main content. This allows applications to only pull in relevant information. Feeds are also void of design elements, so applications can present content how they’d like.
(2) RSS: Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh
RSS stands for Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh. It is also calledRashtriya Seva Sangh.
It is a Hindu nationalists, right-wing, charitable, educational, Non-Governmental and world largest voluntary non-governmental organization.
The RSS is the progenitor and leader of a large body of organisations called the Sangh Parivar (the “family of the RSS”), which have presence in all facets of the Indian society.
RSS was founded in 1925 by Keshav Baliram Hedgewar, a doctor in the city of Nagpur, British India.
Its main motive was to establish a social organization which provides character training through Hindu discipline and to unite the Hindu community.
It has also been criticized when its member participated in anti-Muslim violence. It was banned during the British rule and three times after independence. First time, it is banned in 1948 when a former RSS member Nathu Ram Godse killed Mahatma Gandhi, second time during the emergency (1975-77) and third time after the demolition of Babri Masjid in 1992.
