be able to see them again through our physical eyes. They shall always live in our memories.

terrorists and Naxalites, and we pay our homage to noble departed souls.
Overview of Activities
Sangh Shiksha Vargas were organized at 70 places all over Bharat between May to June 2010
like every year. Camps for Pratham Varsh (First Year) were held as per programmes decided by
respective prants (states) and Dweetaya Varsh (Second Year) camps were organized at Kshetra (Zonal)
level. Camps in South were planned on the basis of languages. Second Year training camps for senior
swayamsevaks were organized at four places all over Bharat, viz. Kanyakumari, Delhi, Ranchi and
Vadodara. Triteeya Varsh (Third year) training camp was held in Nagpur as usual. There was no special
third year training in the last year. This will be organized in the winters this year.
11556 swayamsevaks took part from 7230 places in the First Year Camps, 2678 swayamsevaks
participated from 2087 places for the Second Year; 497 participants from 370 places for special Second

As per information available, at present 39908 shakhas are active in 27078 places all over Bharat.
Sangh work is also going on through 7990 Saptahik Milans (Weekly get-togethers) and 6431 Sangh
Mandalis at different places in Bharat.
Critical analysis of quantitative aspect of Sangh work was done during the meeting of A. B.
Karyakari Mandal in Jalgaon in October 2010. There was constructive discussion about the causes of
growth or lack of growth in different places. We have received information about some good
experiments. It was felt that qualitative analysis should also be done along with quantitative analysis.
Tours of Parampoojaneeya Sarsanghchalak
The core message in the tours undertaken at Kshetra level by Parampoojaneeya Sarsanghchalak
was about ‘karyakarta’. Interactive programmes with discussions and questions-answers sessions
organized by Sampark vibhag with renowned influential celebrities in small groups in Mumbai, Surat,
Sambhajinagar, Bhuvaneshwar, Sambalpur, Dhanbad etc. proved to be great success. A programme,
called ‘Samvad’ witnessed the presence of 165 influential leaders from all walks of social life in Pune.
During the tours of other A.B. adhikaris under programmes organized at national level,
constructive discussions were held about work among College students, growth at ‘Nagar’ level and
quality of work.

for women. 127 karyakartas from 15 prants took part in this meeting. Ideas were discussed about an
independent initiative to bring together and co-ordinate such women oriented projects. It was felt that
some more activities also need to be taken up about various problems faced by women.
Dharna programme
Hindutva is being tarnished with terms like Hindu terrorism, Saffron terrorism etc. Efforts are
also being made to drag Sangh into this controversy. Public resentment against this kind of politics must
be exhibited; with this objective a programme was chalked out to offer ‘dharna’ in all the district centres
of Bharat on 10th November. This programme was widely successful across Bharat though it was taken up
at a very short notice.
Almost one million, to be more exact 10,58,438 citizens were present in 750 places for this
dharna. Participation in big numbers by mothers and sisters, well organized and disciplined way the
dharnas were offered were the highlights of this programme. Highest number of participation of 25000
citizens in Jabalpur. At a short notice, success of programme shows the feelings within the society about
the subject. This programme has raised the self confidence of karyartas in a big way.
Press Conferences
A programme had been chalked out at the meeting of A.B. Karyakari Mandal held in Jalgaon, to
conduct press conferences at state centres. 3492 journalists were present in 224 places. Approach of

izfrosnu 4
media to these press meets was positive. By giving requisite coverage to these press conferences, media
has shown sensitivity and respect to the popular feeling.
National Scenario
Decision on Ram Janmabhoomi by Allahabad High Court
Decision handed down by Lucknow Bench of Allahabad High Court on 30th September is an
acceptance of the faith and belief of Crores of Hindus. Legal system of our country has not only kept their
feelings in mind but has based its decision on all the facts available to it in this regard, thus respecting the
sentiments of the people.
Some vested interests had tried to generate a tense atmosphere before the ruling. But, restraint
and calm that different communities and groups have shown after the decision was made public is in tune
with the culture and traditions of this country. But, Hindu society desires that all sections of the society
should come together to build a grand temple for Lord Ram and present an ideal example of amity and
goodwill. Enthusiastic participation of people in large numbers during the Hanumat Shakti Jagaran
programmes conducted all over the country is an indication of this feeling. These programmes took place
at 11467 places and attended by 63,78,680 people of which 21,22,669 were women.
Now, there is a need to pass a law in the Parliament with consensus of all law makers to clear the
way for temple construction.
Terrorism
Thousands of innocent people, police and military personnel have been killed mercilessly during
the continued Jihadi terrorism in last two decades. National security is sought to be destructed time and
again. Not only Bharat, but the whole world community is suffering from terrorism. But, it is unfortunate
that anti-Hindu forces in our country are trying to weaken the efforts to counter Jihadi terrorism by
labeling the Hindu community as terrorist by citing a few incidents.
Instead of assuring security to patriotic Hindu organizations, holy saints and centres of faith of
Hindu society, these people are trying to create confusion about these forces in the minds of common
people. With a selfish urge to remain in power or capture power, policies are being framed to pander to
some communities while closing eyes to the anti-national and terrorist forces. So called leaders consider
Hindu organizations to be even a greater danger than the elements fomenting Islamic terrorism. They are
not even shy of sharing such views with foreign powers.
But, we are sure that Hindu society can see through this conspiracy. It will foil all such attempts
to manufacture falsehood and create confusion, and will co-operate wholeheartedly with the efforts
towards nation building in future.
Worrisome situation in Jammu & Kashmir
A consensus regarding complete and final merger of Kashmir with Bharat has been arrived at
many a times since 1947, but situation in Jammu-Kashmir remains a cause of worry. Infact, the root
cause of Jammu-Kashmir problem is weak and indecisive policies of the central government. We have
not been successful in achieving integration and sense of oneness in social, mental, economic and
political sense in Jammu-Kashmir as we have done in other states of our country inspite of providing
grants worth lakhs of crores of rupees for various projects and plans, sacrifice of more than one lakh
innocent citizens and thousands of jawans of police and army during last 63 years. Various political
parties are strengthening the forces of separatism directly or indirectly to fulfill their vested political
interests. Conspiracy to remove all Hindus from the valley by forcing more than 4 lakh indigenous
Hindus to run away from Kashmir, armed incursions from across the border, open support by ISI and
terrorist commanders of Pakistan to leaders of active separatist organizations and training the youth,
providing them with arms etc.; are all forms of undeclared war against Bharat. Having failed to fulfill
their objectives through terrorism, they have changed their tactics now. Agitational terrorism is but a new
form of terrorism.
Anti-national forces are striking their roots deeper with time. Separatist forces are engaged in
anti-Bharat propaganda by organizing seminars in capital city of Delhi and other cities.

izfrosnu 5
 The real truth is that these anti-Bharat agitations are limited to only 5 out of 22 districts of
Jammu-Kashmir. Gujjars, Bakarwals, Shias, Kashmiri Sikhs and Pandits, various refugee groups in
Jammu, Dogras, Buddhists and nationalist Muslims are not part of this separatist movement. But,
atmosphere being created all around is as if entire Jammu-Kashmir wants to secede from Bharat.
Actually, less than half of the population from only 14% of the state’s area is part of this agitation. By
using women and boys to throw stones at security forces anti-national groups spread across Bharat are
trying to create an atmosphere with the help of media as if all the citizens of the valley want
independence or ‘azadi’.
Negation of complete merger of Jammu-Kashmir with Bharat by Chief Minister Omar Abdullah,
claiming Jammu-Kashmir to be a disputed territory, creation of such an environment by interlocutors of
the Centre and open support to them by Central government and Congress leaders indicates that
separatists, State and the Central government have embarked upon such a path to strike some agreement.
It is difficult to imagine what kind of pronouncements would have been made had Indian Army and other
nationalist forces not exerted pressure. Terming Jammu-Kashmir as a political problem and reversing its
merger that began in 1953 when Dr. Mukherjee sacrificed his life and Praja Parishad conducted a historic
agitation; there are now talks about formulae of autonomy, self-rule etc.
Bogey of ‘Human Rights violations’ is being raised by citing a few incidents. It is extremely
important that morale of Armed forces is kept high by maintaining their special powers. This is the only
way that security of common people would be assured.
It is call of the times that strong action be taken against separatist elements and nationalist forces
be strengthened. People in different states of the country must pressurize state and central governments in
an organized manner. This is the only way that unity of the nation would be secured. Jammu-Kashmir
should also have the same sense of unity with Bharat like other states. Keeping in mind the activities
across the border, only solution to achieve this is abrogation of article 370, system of separate constitution
and separate flag be scrapped and treating it like any other state. The right solution to this problem is to
establish a sense of one country – on people – one nation.
Atrocities on Rabha Hindus
Incidents that took place on the first day of Christian New year near the border areas of Assam
and Meghalay are a pointer to us about the dangers that we would face in future. Garo and Rabha
communities are living together for many generations with cordial relations. They celebrate their festivals
and follow their traditions happily together. Both the groups have been staying together respecting each
others’ sentiments and respecting each other’s faith and beliefs. With increase in conversions to
Christianity and a large section of Garo tribes converting to Christianity, there is a widening chasm
between Garo and Rabha tribes. With failure to convert people of Rabha community to Christianity these
differences have widened further, resulting in an atmosphere of intolerance. Despite this Rabha
community had been co-operating in the programmes organized by Christian missionaries. After
Meghalaya got the status of a State, political influence of Garo community became stronger, resulting in
increase in Missionary activities. This is the reason behind current atmosphere of confrontation, violence
and terror between Garo and Rabha people. Combined efforts of separatist elements, Bangladeshi
infiltrators Muslims and some political leaders have generated a situation of conflict. This is the
atmosphere that led to the horrible incidents in the initial weeks of January.
Conflicts between Dimasa and Karbi, Dimasa and Jemi in the past few years are a
manifestation of activities of such anti-national forces. Violence of January 2011 reminds us of such
incidents that took place earlier too. So called secular lobby is only exposing its pseudo-secularism by
turning a blind eye to these facts.
Meghalaya government does not have courage to get to the root of the issue and is trying to pass
it off as a result of misunderstandings. Nearly 30000 Rabha brethren from 30 villages have become
homeless. There is an urgent need for their permanent rehabilitation and security.
Hindus have faced serious security concerns wherever they have become a minority in North
East. Assamese, Bengalis and Hindi speaking groups have been forced to flee from Shillong region of
Meghalaya earlier too. They have been forced to live their lives as refugees in other states since last 13
years. 40000 Riyangs, who follow their own faith, were also forcibly displaced. It is critically important
to defend the traditions and faiths of various tribes in this region.

Corruption: A Challenge
Various studies expose the terrible extent of corruption. Increasing consumerism has led to lust
for self-aggrandizement, resulting in urge to accumulate wealth through unethical and illegal means. This
is the root cause of this problem of corruption. There is a strong tendency to misuse constitutional
positions. We are witnessing devastation of constitutional system due to this mentality. Unfortunately,
there are question marks about the safety of the people who are opposing this and trying to clean up the
system. It is extremely important that there should be serious thinking by the policy makers of the nation,
economic experts and social thinkers about the effect on fiscal system and economic stability resulting
from black money and corruption and methodologies to create a healthy system. Serious efforts must be
made to bring back illegal wealth stashed away in foreign lands.
Increasing support from the common people to agitations being organized by different groups and
organizations gives us a clear indication about the public opinion in this regard.
Positive signs of Hindu awakening
Maa Narmada Samajik Kumbh
Maa Narmada Samajik Kumbh took place in February 2011 in Mandla. This Kumbh has
manifested extra-ordinary power of the society. Maa Narmada Samajik Kumbh was organized to awaken
the people against social problems and efforts to weaken the Hindu society. This festival saw
participation of 415 different scheduled castes and scheduled tribes and 400 other social groups from
4000 villages of 1179 tehsils from 336 districts. It is estimated that nearly 30lac pilgrims took part in the
Kumbh during these three days. Presence of Revered Shankaracharya Vasudevanand Saraswati ji
Maharaj, Revered Satyamitranand ji, Sadhvi Ritambharaji, Revered Asaram Bapu and many other saints
and sadhus made this kumbh a great success. Other important dignitaries like Parmpoojaneeya
Sarsanghchalak Shri Mohanrao Bhagwat, Chief of Rashtra Sevika Samiti Vandaneeya Pramilatai, Chief
Ministers of Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh Shri Shivraj Chauhan and Dr. Raman Singh were also
present in this programme. The highlight of this festival was the co-operation of common people and the
state government for this programme.
Vishwa Sanskrit Pustak Mela (World Sanskrit Book Fair)
Prestigious Sanskrit institutions came together to organize Vishwa Sanskrit Pustak Mela. This
fair was conducted with the help of 14 Sanskrit Universities, National Sanskrit institute, Akhil Bharatiya
Sanskrit Pustak Prakashan Sangh and Sanskrit Bharati etc. from 7 to 10 January 2010. This is the first
time in the chequered history of Sanskrit that such a programme was organized.
128 publishers exhibited their publications at this fair. Specialty of this fair was that only Sanskrit
books and books about Sanskrit were show cased. 12 lakhs books worth 4 crore were sold in this period
of 4 days. 4 lakhs people visited the fair. An exhibition titled ‘Gyanganga’ (Traditions of Bharatiya
Knowledge) was a major attraction of this fair, and left even well versed citizens in awe.
7146 delegates from 26 states and 12 countries were present in the fair. 310 Sanskrit books were
released on this occasion which was a record by itself.
Vishwa Sangh Shivir
Vishwa Adhyayan Kendra organized a camp in Pune from 29 December 2010 to 3 January 2011
in Pune, that saw enthusiastic participation of 330 brothers, 152 sisters and 35 children from 35 countries.
Shri Jagdish Shastriji who had initiated the Hindu organised work outside Bharat was also present in the
camp. Discussions were held about status of Hindus staying outside Bharat, spreading and publicizing
Hindu Sanskriti, organization of Hindu conferences at different places etc. Delegates were also given
information about various types of activities being conducted in Bharat. Concluding valedictory public
function was held in the presence of famous industrialist Shri. Abhay Firodia and Shri. Bhausaheb
Chitale. Parampoojaneeya Sarsanghchalak ji addressed the august gathering. 15000 distinguished
citizens participated in this function. Brethren from overseas enjoyed the cultural programmes presented
by local groups and a drama titled ‘Shiv Rajyabhishek’ about coronation of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.

Appeal
We undertake a critical appraisal of our Sangh work even as we review the current social and
political scenario from time to time. This is how we traditionally work. Keeping in mind the challenges
that we face and expectations of the society, we have to increase our velocity and strength in a sustained
manner. It is necessary for us to keep focus on strengthening our organization and systems and increasing
the strength of our karyakartas.
Here we recall the words of Parampoojaneeya Sri Guruji. He had said, “World today understands
only one language – language of strength. A nation can progress and maintain its position only on the
basis of strong foundation and immeasurable strength. We must proceed on this path of duty with great
effort with this sentiment. Even an ordinary person can be completely successful in attaining one’s goal in
life with this resolve.”
