Meerut buzzed with ideological fervor as RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat addressed cadres, dispensing five mantras for unwavering commitment and recruitment ahead of Uttar Pradesh’s 2027 electoral battle. His words cut through political noise, prioritizing service over ambition.
The culminating mantra was a masterclass in detachment: ‘Engage in virtuous actions with integrity, sans self-interest. Shun pleas for political posts. Perform neki and discard it in the river.’ Such patriotic excellence, Bhagwat assured, forges RSS membership organically.
Building on his February 18 Lucknow discourse, Bhagwat positioned harmony, anti-casteism, and Hindu solidarity as nation-building imperatives. ‘We share maternal bonds as Bharat’s offspring—Hindu brotherhood dissolves divides,’ he asserted.
Caste, he analyzed, evolved from functional roles to divisive malaise. ‘Barriers fade; young India rejects rigidity. Forge ahead: one Hindu samaj.’ Modernity merits embrace if tested against dharma, not Western mimicry. Political ills vanish in a awakened, unified society.
On UGC disputes, judicial pendency demands silence. ‘Safeguard social fabric.’ Bhagwat’s focus shifts to Uttarakhand’s RSS centennial push: 1,000 conferences to ignite Hindu consciousness across the hills.
