Nagpur, 04 July (HS): “Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh volunteers provide

services in different fields. Some people think that their work is remotely or

centrally controlled. But RSS only grooms people with their behaviour,

qualities, values and character. The volunteers work independently as per the

needs of the field”, said RSS Sarasanghchalak Dr Mohan Bhagwat.

Dr Bhagwat was speaking on “Dr Hedgewar – Adhunik Yug Ke Shaliwahan’ at

Scientific Society Hall, Nagpur. He said the basic principles and values cannot

be compromised, the methodology to serve the society can be different. RSS

grooms people on basic principles of humanity, honesty and dedicated work. It

grooms volunteers for maintaining character, nationality and social

responsibility, which is reflected in their families and communities. Dr

Hedgewar during his entire life demonstrated these values to present a model to

be followed by RSS volunteers.

The values and principles of life will have to be inculcated in the

family and community for making Bharat a world leader in its true sense, Dr Bhagawat

added. Getting rid of ego is very difficult, but has to be practiced for

serving the society.

Dr Hedgewar could achieve it through determination, and dedication and

practice throughout his life.

People had tendency to follow the Western culture even before independence,

which later grew. Dr Hedgewar, however, followed Indian values and culture and

presented a model with his life.

Today youth from various countries are inspired by work of RSS. We all

should work towards preservation of our dharma, culture and national spirit. Dr

Bhagwat added.
