RSS preps for Jan 22! Sangh to embark on special Ram Janmbhoomi door-to-door campaign

In its effort to take the Ram Janmabhoomi messageto households across the rural hinterland in the country, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and its affiliates will embark on a ‘door-to-door’ campaign from January 1 to January 15 targeting at least 10 crore people.

 

The organisation will form small teams of its volunteers, which will connect with the people to spread ‘Ram Katha’ that includes his life, his rule and an invitation to all to join the pranpratistha utsav of ‘Ram Lalla’ in Ayodhya on January 22, a senior functionary of the RSS told News18.

 

After the coordination meeting of the RSS and its affiliate organisations in Bhuj early this month, Dattatreya Hosable, RSS general secretary, said the RSS volunteers will reach out to households across states to invite people for the ‘pran pratishtha’ programme in Ayodhya. The senior functionary of the RSS has marked this programme as one to unite Hindus.

 

 

The RSS has already taken up several initiatives to make the national narrative revolve around Ayodhya, Ram and Ram Janmabhoomi. Apart from reaching out to influential people from the social-cultural-political fronts, the organisation has started curating speeches of important people related to Ram-Sita and the culture of this country. The campaign on social media and on ground has already started, added the senior functionary.

 

The RSS is also planning to counter all political campaigns by the Opposition, including the Congress, through the outreach programme. The idea of having a caste census and bringing in the issue as part of the election campaign looks like a ‘ploy’ to divide Hindus on the caste lines, said another senior functionary.
