Invigorating Societal Strength

“By awakening patriotism and potential of the nation, Bharat will once again become Jagadguru. Many great leaders and stalwarts of this country have done this most important work. The RSS also since 1925 has been doing this noble work,” said Paschim Kshetra Dharma Jagran Pramukh of RSS Shri Shyam Harkare. He was speaking at the concluding ceremony of RSS first year Sangh Shiksha Varg of Konkan Prant at Dahanu on June 1.

Shri Harkare further said the work of organising the Hindu society is the work of awakening the latent power of the country. The Sangh has started the process of igniting patriotism with the view to building a self-sacrificing society. He also referred to various cultural, political and social onslaughts on the Hindu society. He underlined the need to establish a disciplined and organised society to counter such attacks. He stressed on the fact that due to thousands of years of foreign aggression some of our people have gone away from their original roots and, once again they need to be brought back to the original stream of the Hindu society.
