NEW DELHI: The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh will hold its three-day all-India Prant Pracharak meeting at Keshav Kunj in Delhi from July 4 to 6 to review organisational progress and deliberate on its centenary celebrations scheduled to begin later this year.The centenary year, which will mark 100 years of the RSS’s founding, will be launched on October 2 with the Vijayadashami Utsav in Nagpur, where Sarsanghchalak Mohan Bhagwat will address volunteers. A series of programmes will follow across the country, including local shakha-level celebrations for 8-10 days, special youth outreach drives, and Grih Sampark Abhiyan, where volunteers will visit households for 20 days to distribute literature and engage with the public.RSS Akhil Bharatiya Prachar Pramukh Sunil Ambekar said on Thursday that all provinces have prepared plans for the centenary year, and these will be discussed in detail during the meeting. “The 100 years theme is central to this baithak. The preparations by all prants will be reviewed, and guidance will be given on taking the message of the Sangh to all sections of society,” he said.The annual meeting, held after the summer training camps (prashikshan vargs), will also focus on organizational work, challenges in expanding to new areas, and adjustments needed in outreach strategies. This year, 100 training camps were conducted, mostly for students and volunteers under 40, along with 25 camps for those aged 40-60. Ambekar noted that a revised training pedagogy, introduced two years ago, was used for these camps.About 233 karyakartas, including Sah-Sarkaryavahs, department heads, and all-India organizational secretaries of 32 RSS-inspired affiliates, will participate in the deliberations, held under the guidance of Sarsanghchalak Mohan Bhagwat and Sarkaryavah Dattatreya Hosabale. Discussions will also cover boudhik (intellectual) and sharirik (physical) activities, with a view to making necessary changes where required.The Sangh will also organize Samajik Sadbhav Baithaks (social harmony meetings) and Pramukh Nagarik Gosthis (prominent citizens’ gatherings) at the district level post-October to deliberate on social issues, national priorities, and ways to promote harmony.“There is growing enthusiasm among the youth to join the Sangh. Since April, 28,571 people have registered online expressing interest in becoming volunteers,” Ambekar said.
