The importance of Swadeshi Jagaran Manch’s largest national council meeting can be assessed from the fact that it outlined the way forward to achieve Aatmanirbhar Bharat by 2047. Rashtriya Parishad Baithak not only saw participation from SJM members but also from workers associated with the
Self-Reliant India Campaign.
Three hundred and forty karyakartas participated in the Swadeshi Jagaran Manch’s largest-ever National Council meeting from June 28 to June 30. It also brought together a record number of 47 women, to chalk out future direction and outline strategies for the betterment of the nation. This landmark meeting was graced with the presence and guidance of honourable V Bhagayya, former Joint General Secretary of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and current National Executive Member.

Additionally, the IID, Vakrangee Group, and Gayatri Parivar also took part in the proceedings.
