The all-important ‘2024 Samanvay Baithak’ of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and its 32 affiliates scheduled in Kerala’s Palakkad will focus on the agenda for the centenary celebrations of the principal organisation of the Sangh Parivar group besides the upcoming elections in the four states.
In 2025, RSS, often referred to as an Indian nationalist volunteer organisation and the ideological parents of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will turn 100.
“During this meeting, activists of Sangh-inspired organisations will share information and exchange experiences about their respective work. In this meeting, there will be a discussion on various issues of national interest in the present scenario, recent important happenings, and planning regarding the multiple dimensions of social change. All these organisations will discuss the measures for increasing cooperation and coordination on various subjects,” a statement from Sunil Ambekar, Akhil Bharatiya Prachar Pramukh, or chief spokesperson of the RSS read.
The organisation president and the general secretary of each of the 32 organisations will be present at the annual meet scheduled for three days from August 31 – September 02, the RSS official said. Last year, a similar bhaithak (meeting) was organised in Pune. These meetings often involve high-level discussions where the RSS charts the roadmap for its sister concerns to be carried out during the year.
In September 2023, it was organised in Pune, Maharashtra. In the Akhil Bharatiya Samanvay Baithak, key office-bearers of various Sangh-inspired organisations, participate as per invitation.
