Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), which is currently engaged in micro management of constituencies for Narendra Modi led BJP government to assume power at the Centre, on Friday asked swayamsevaks to talk less and work more. Further, at the ongoing Akhil Bharateeya Pratinidhi Sabha in Bangalore, RSS asked swayamsevaks to be pro-active so as to bring about the change that will reflect the will and aspirations of the common people.
RSS said the Lok Sabha elections is a good opportunity for our countrymen. ''The credibility, honesty and commitment to the nation of the present government have become questionable. Today, the nation expects a change. It is the active role of the enlightened voters that is going to shape the future destiny of our nation,'' said RSS Sarkaryavaha Bhaiyyaji Joshi while presenting annual report for 2013-14.
Nearly 1,400 selected RSS representatives and office bearers of RSS affiliated organizations are currently meeting at Bangalore to review annual programmes and performance.
RSS expressed serious concerns over attempts made by selfish political interests to divide society in the name of majority and minority which has the potential to vitiate the atmosphere of country's unity and harmony. ''It is high time for the thinkers active in the social and Dharmic spheres to come together and evolve the ways and means to safeguard the unity and integrity of the nation, notes Joshi.
Without directly naming the creation of Telengana state, RSS claimed that considerations of political gains and losses influence the decision-making process on bifurcating big states. ''Decisions should be taken with the consideration and protection of social relationships and mutual confidence. At the time of bifurcation, care should be taken against whipping up passions, and to ensure that people of any section or region do not get the feeling that injustice has been done to them. Otherwise, the possibility of such decisions affecting social relationships in the long run will remain,''opines Joshi.
Further, Joshi referred to the "live in relationship" and "homosexuality'' issues. ''Before extending legality to such things, we have to keep in mind the long-time deleterious effect it will have on our social life,'' argues Joshi.
