Week-long visit to Arunachal Pradesh
“RASHTRIYA Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and its associated organisations are working tirelessly to propagate the ideals of Swami Vivekananda to make Bharat regain the historic glory of Vishwa Guru,” said RSS Sahsarkaryavah Shri KC Kannan. Addressing a huge gathering of Arunachal’s esteemed intelligentsia at Hotel Tosum Conference Hall, he said, spreading the human philosophy of the great monk to embrace world without any distinction would be the greatest tribute to him in his 150th birth anniversary.
Shri Kannan informed that the swayamsevaks are committed to take forward the unfinished task of Swamiji and the Sardha Shati year will be a moment of great inspiration for the whole nation at large to march forward in that direction. Glorifying the importance of indigenous faith and culture, the eternal Donyi Polo system of worship in Arunachal Pradesh, he said, such faiths are the oldest embodiment of our rich culture, nevertheless should be promoted and protected among the younger generations for further enhancement.
Chief Engineer, Government of Arunachal Pradesh, Shri Anong Perme, who is chief patron of Adi Baane Kebang and also the president of Itanagar Donyi Polo Yelam Kebang, said the religious conflicts would end in the society if the meaning of dharma – assimilation and not division – as defined by Swamiji is understood properly. Among others, State Swami Vivekananda Sardh Shati Samaroh Samiti president Shri Nabam Atum, former Indigenous Faith & Culture Society of Arunachal Pradesh (IFCSAP) presidents Shri Tonyi Koyu and Shri Taba Hare, North East Shraddha Jagaran Pramukh of Vanvasi Kalyan Ashram Shri Ramesh Babu, RSS Prant Karyavah Shri Nido Sakter and Vibhag Karyavah Dr Techi Upen Tara were also present on the occasion.
During the week-long visit Shri Kannan addressed similar gatherings at Pasighat, Aalo and Seppa. He also attended the three-day Shivir at Seppa, district headquarter of East Kameng, which saw a vast pathsanchalan of uniformed swayamsevaks. (FOC)
