Hamirpur (HP), Oct 20 Hundreds of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) workers took out processions at various places in Himachal Pradesh on Tuesday to mark the organisation’s foundation day.
In Hamirpur town, young and elderly RSS workers marched through the main bazaar, singing religious and patriotic songs.
Addressing the main function in Hamirpur, RSS North Zone Baudhik Pramukh Harish Kumar said the world was looking towards India as people were dissatisfied with the functioning of their governments.
He said India had made significant progress and the RSS was making efforts to contribute to the country’s development.
Bhumi Dutt Sharma, who presided over the function, urged people to adopt swadeshi and refrain from using foreign goods.
He said the five-point programme introduced by the RSS for its workers — social harmony, family awakening, environmental conservation, selfhood and swadeshi, and civic duty — could help bring about social change and unite society around Hinduism and nationalism.
Sharma also urged people to perform weapon worship during Dussehra and other Hindu festivals, saying weapons could prove useful during a crisis.
