RSS has tried to shrug off the impression that it was shielding BJP chief Nitin Gadkari, saying those found guilty should be punished and that it had no soft corner for anyone.

RSS, which had chosen Gadkari for the party chief's post and wanted him to have another term, apparently faces the predicament of how far it can go protect him.
