As we celebrate the 100th anniversary of this great institution, I commend the Sangh’s tireless efforts in uniting the nation, empowering communities, and instilling a sense of selfless service among millions.”
Hailing RSS Volunteers
Prime Minister Modi specifically hailed the volunteers of the RSS, known as ‘Swayamsevaks,’ for their commitment to the nation. He remarked that the Sangh’s ideology of selfless service and discipline has inspired generations of volunteers to serve India with dedication, especially during times of crisis. From disaster relief to social reform, the RSS has always been at the forefront of addressing the needs of the nation’s most vulnerable citizens.
Modi further emphasized the importance of the values espoused by the organization, saying, “The RSS teaches us the values of dedication, discipline, and humility. The work of its Swayamsevaks, from providing aid during natural disasters to supporting community development, is a true embodiment of these principles.”
A Milestone in Indian History
The 100th anniversary of the RSS is not only a milestone for the organization but also a significant event in India’s modern history. Over the last century, the Sangh has been instrumental in fostering a spirit of patriotism and unity, especially among India’s youth. As the organization moves forward into its second century, PM Modi urged the RSS to continue its work with the same passion and dedication.
“As the RSS enters its next century, I am confident that the Sangh will continue to play a vital role in strengthening the nation and promoting the ideals of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam (the world is one family),” Modi added. He also expressed his hope that the Sangh would carry forward its vision of building a stronger, self-reliant India, with a focus on development and national integration.
RSS Centenary Celebrations
The centenary celebrations of the RSS are expected to be marked with various events and programs across the country, celebrating its legacy and future direction. The Sangh has announced plans to expand its outreach initiatives, with a focus on empowering rural communities, supporting education, and preserving India’s rich cultural heritage.
In conclusion, PM Modi’s heartfelt message on the 100th anniversary of the RSS highlights the organization’s deep-rooted connection to India’s journey of progress and unity. As the RSS looks toward the future, the Prime Minister’s words serve as a reminder of the significant role the Sangh has played in nation-building and its continued relevance in the years to come.
