PM Modi Hails Mohan Bhagwat’s ‘Inspiring’ RSS Centenary Speech
PM Narendra Modi hails RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat's speech on national progress, social unity, and 'Panch Parivartan' during the centenary celebrations.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has expressed strong admiration for the address delivered by Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat during the organization's landmark centenary Vijayadashami celebrations. Taking to the social media platform X, the Prime Minister described the speech as highly inspiring, emphasizing its focus on the long-term vision for India's future.
A Vision for National Progress
The celebrations, held in Nagpur on October 20, 2026, marked a historic milestone for the RSS. In his address, Mohan Bhagwat touched upon several critical themes that the Prime Minister noted as essential for the country's growth, including:
- National Progress: Strategies for advancing the country on a global scale.
- Social Unity: The necessity of maintaining a cohesive society.
- Self-Reliance: Strengthening India's independence and capability.
- Societal Character: The importance of building a strong moral and ethical foundation within the community.
The Concept of 'Panch Parivartan'
A central highlight of the RSS chief's speech was the introduction of 'Panch Parivartan', or five key changes. Bhagwat asserted that these five initiatives are indispensable for driving a positive and meaningful social transformation across the nation.
He reminded the volunteers that a commitment to 'Sewa' (service) and the active pursuit of nation-building must remain an inseparable part of every member's life.
Warnings Against Instability
While focusing on growth, Mohan Bhagwat also issued a stern caution regarding the nature of protests and movements in India. He warned against forces that seek to destabilize established systems for the sake of cheap popularity or simple shifts in power.
To illustrate the dangers of instability, Bhagwat referenced the current situations in nations such as France, Albania, and Bangladesh. He argued that India must avoid such turmoil by ensuring that discourse remains constructive and focused on finding actual solutions to problems.
PM Modi’s Endorsement
Prime Minister Modi echoed these sentiments, acknowledging the significance of the RSS centenary year. He underscored the importance of national cohesion, especially given the current volatile global climate, and expressed his full support for the call toward societal change and the strengthening of India's internal fabric.
