Many activities are being implemented. Meanwhile, a program has been organized at the Nehru Center in Worli, Mumbai. The name of this is ‘Mumbai lecture series’ and today Sarsangchalak is in it Mohan Bhagwat addressed.

“Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh is not a political party but people associated with it are in politics,” said Sarsangh Chief Mohan Bhagwat. Mohan Bhagwat has commented on the definition of the Sangh, the function of the Sangh, the creation of the word Hindu. Being an Indian is not just a citizen, it is a nature. It is a connecting nature, said Bhagwat.

Speaking further, Sarsanghchalak Mohan Bhagwat said, “Every person knows something from others. But there is no one else who compares to the Sangh. Often people misunderstand the Sangh’s work, ongoing activities and various organizations. Sangh is misunderstood even from a distance and superficially. Because you watch our programs.”

Mohan Bhagwat said, “Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh is doing more than 1.3 lakh services without taking any funds from the government, using its own funds with the help of the society. Hindu is not just a name but an adjective. Everyone living in India is a Hindu. The Sangh does no other work than to unite the entire society. Narendra Modi is the prime minister. Many say he is the prime minister of RSS. But I say he has a political party called BJP. It has many volunteers”, said Mohan Bhagwat.
