Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) Sarsanghchalak Dr Mohan Bhagavat had a fruitful visit between October 8 to 10 to Kerala.

Mohanji presented the brochures of environment protection and seva (social service) activities Sangh has been carrying out to Amma.

During the meeting, Amma explained to Sarsanghchalak the seva activities Math has been carrying out in Jammu Kashmir and North East. Both discussed the RSS activities in the spheres of Kudumbaprabodhanam (enlightenment for happy, noble family life), protection of environment and protection of cow.
