RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat called for Hindu unity, calling for the elimination of language, caste, and regional differences. He remarked that India is a Hindu nation and urged volunteers to promote social harmony.
RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat has called for Hindu unity, emphasising that the Hindu society must come together for its security by eliminating differences in language, caste, and regional disputes. Addressing a 'Swayamsevak Ekatrikaran' event in Rajasthan's Baran on Saturday evening, Bhagwat reiterated that India is a Hindu nation and stressed that the functioning of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) is not mechanical but based on ideas.
"Hindus consider everyone as their own and embrace everyone. We have lived here since ancient times, even though the term Hindu came later. Hindus embrace everyone. They live in harmony through continuous dialogue," Bhagwat said, as quoted by news agency PTI. He added that discipline, duty towards the state, and dedication to goals are essential qualities for societal unity.
“A society is not just formed by individuals and their families, but by considering the comprehensive concerns through which one can attain spiritual fulfilment,” he stated, further noting that the values of the RSS permeate from group leaders down to volunteers, their families, and society at large.
Bhagwat urged volunteers to maintain widespread contact within communities and work towards social harmony, justice, health, education, and self-reliance. "The focus should be on social harmony, environmental awareness, indigenous values, and civic consciousness within families," he said, adding that India’s global reputation is tied to its strength, and the safety of its expatriates is assured when the nation becomes strong.
A total of 3,827 RSS volunteers attended the event, which was also attended by senior RSS functionaries Ramesh Agarwal, Jagdish Singh Rana, Ramesh Chand Mehta, and Vaidya Radheshyam Garg, among others.
