Pune: Addressing a program in Pune to mark the centenary of the RSS’s founding, RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat said that world leaders listen attentively when Prime Minister Narendra Modi speaks. The main reason for this is that India’s strength is being revealed and the country is receiving its rightful place. He noted that Prime Minister Modi is being listened to so attentively globally because India’s power is now being reflected in places where it should rightfully be, and this has attracted the world’s attention. On the RSS’s centenary, he emphasized that one should not simply think about celebrations, but rather aim to complete the assigned task within the stipulated time. He said that the Sangh has completed 100 years battling challenges and storms, but now is the time to introspect as to why it took so long to unite the entire society.
India’s Importance and Global Peace: It is generally believed that when India progresses, global problems are solved, conflicts are reduced, and peace prevails. He said that this is recorded in history and we must re-realize it, as current global circumstances demand it of India. He highlighted the sacrifices of RSS founder Dr. Keshav Baliram Hedgewar. He said that the Sangh volunteers began their mission amidst many obstacles and challenges, and they sowed the seeds of success and paved the way for change by dedicating their lives. Bhagwat said that when the Sangh talks about the power of dialogue and collective action, it refers to the entire society. He emphasized that the Sangh’s foundation lies in unity in diversity, and everyone must move together, for which dharma is essential. He believed that all philosophies in India originate from the same source, and since everything is interconnected, we must move forward in harmony.
