Singer and composer Shankar Mahadevan will be the chief guest at the Vijayadashami Utsav of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) this year (2023), said the Hindu outfit said in a X post on Thursday.  The annual ceremony will be held in Nagpur on October 24 in the presence of RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat.

It will be the 98th RSS’ ‘Vijayadashami Utsav’ in Nagpur.  Sangh organises a program on Dussehra in Nagpur every year since its inception in 1925.

Last year Santosh Yadav was chief guest

Last year, it was the first time that a woman participated as the chief guest in the RSS’s Vijayadashami festival. The Sangh had invited mountaineer Santosh Yadav for this program for the first time.
