GORAKHPUR: “Nation-building is possible only through character-building. Bharat’s sanskritik roots are one and the same; modes of worship may differ, but our ancestors and roots are the same,” said Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) Sarkaryavah Dattatreya Hosabale while speaking at the Hindu Sammelan organised in Sant Kabir Nagar on December 16 to strengthen Hindu unity, social harmony, and cultural consciousness.
Addressing the gathering, Dattatreya Hosabale stated that in Bharat, safeguarding the nation itself is safeguarding Dharma, as Dharma is not limited to ritualistic worship but represents a comprehensive way of life. He called upon society to imbibe social harmony, environmental protection, family awareness, swadeshi, and civic duties in everyday life.
Reiterating his point, he said that only a well-organised society can lead the nation towards its highest glory. Dattatreya Hosabale noted that the RSS is continuously striving to take this ancient nation towards supreme prosperity in the modern era. Highlighting the views of RSS founder Dr Keshav Baliram Hedgewar, he clarified that being morally upright is not enough; it is equally essential to possess a sense of national and social responsibility.
He explained that the concept of the Sangh and its Shakhas was designed to transform individual character into national character.
The Hindu Sammelan saw participation from sants, social workers, eminent citizens, and members of society across various sections. The objective was to bring diverse social groups onto a common platform to strengthen fraternity, cooperation, and cultural values.
The venue was decorated in saffron hues, with an attractive tableau of Bhagwan Sri Ram adorning the stage. Girl students presented beautiful rangoli designs and cultural programmes. The conference conveyed a strong message of renewed energy, awareness, and unity within Hindu society.
The programme was presided over by Mahant Vichar Das Ji of Sant Kabir Math, Maghar.
