A convention of all India delegates of RSS and its allies was held at the historic place of Kurukshetra in the premises of the SMB Geeta Senior Secondary and Geeta Niketan Senior Secondary Schools from 26 March to 28 March 2010 to discuss major national issues which agitate the minds of all sensible, and socially conscious citizens of the country. The venue of the convention holds special significance in two respect, one Kurukshetra being the land of Mahabharata, two the above mentioned schools have the distinguished credit of having been founded by none other than the second RSS Sarsanghachalak Shri Guruji Golwalkar in 1946 and 1973 respectively, who in his long life span laid the foundation of no other educational institution. RSS Sarsanghachalak Shri Mohan Bhagwat, Sarkaryavah Shri Bhaiyaji Joshi and former Sarsanghachalak Shri KS Sudarshan graced the occasion along with other senior RSS dignitaries.
The convention was attended by as many as 1200 delegates of Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha, national body of of RSS. Around 450 local karyakartas worked day and night to make the convention a grand success. They made elaborate arrangements-comfortable boarding, lodging and health care facilities-for the participants.
The three-day-long brain-storming session characterised by open and frank discussions and deliberations concluded with the adopting of the two following important resolutions with a note of unanimity.
1. Article 370 must be scrapped to integrate Jammu and Kashmir with the mainstream of nation. The discriminatory and anti-nation provision of this Article creates a big barrier in the merging of Jammu and Kashmir in an unqualified manner with rest of India.
2. Secondly, a strict ban on cow slaughter be imposed to prevent the cruel killings of the holy cow who is worshipped by millions of Hindus as the goddess and its killing means hurting the religious sentiments of the overwhelming population of this country. It was further decided that cruelty to any kind of animal must be stopped and those guilty of cruelty to animal must be awarded the severest punishment. The government must ensure the proper care, nurturing and healthy growth of various animals that contribute to the growth of the rural economy. Moreover the spirit of India resides in the villages, so focus needs to be shifted to ensure the faster growth of rural India.
A few personalities whose role was tremendously commendable for the success of the Pratinidhi Sabha were Shri Devi Parshad Bhardwaj, Shri Krishan Baveja, Shri Rajeshji, Shri Rupeshji, Shri Krishanji, Shri Pritamji, Shri Vipinji, Shri Ram Mehar, Dr Rajinder Rana, Shri Ritesh, Dr Virender and many other RSS swayamsevaks.
