Mr Vaidya said that youth in large numbers are attending the Sangh training programmes. Every year, 15,000 to 17,000 young individuals participate in the ‘Pratham Shiksha Varg’ (Pratham Varsh class) and about 1 lakh in the ‘Prathamik Shiksha Varg’, he said.
Nagpur: The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh has brought about changes in the content and nomenclature of its yearly training programmes and the revisions will be implemented from this year itself, RSS joint general secretary Manmohan Vaidya said today.
He was addressing a press conference during the Sangh’s annual ‘Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha’ conclave, starting in Nagpur today.
Mr Vaidya said slight changes have been introduced in their 7-day ‘Prathamik Shiksha Varg’, 20-day ‘Sangh Shiksha Varg-Pratham Varsh’, 20-day ‘Sangh Shiksha Varg-Dvitya Varsh’ and 25-day ‘Sangh Shiksha Varg-Tritiya Varsh’ training programmes.
According to Mr Vaidya, they now have a 3-day ‘Prarambhik Varg’ programme for new Sangh workers.
The new recruits will then take part in the ‘Prathamik Shiksha Varg’ followed by a 15-day ‘Sangh Shiksha Varg’, which was earlier called ‘Sangh Shiksha Varg-Pratham Varsh’ and had a duration of 20 days.
