Bhagwat arrived in the city late on Wednesday night before meeting Sangh leaders on Thursday. He took their feedback on the implementation of ongoing welfare programmes run by the organisation.

He said that RSS workers should work for labourers in urban areas and farmers in the rural areas.

“We have to imbibe a sense of Atmanirbharta (self reliance) in society,” Bhagwat was quoted as saying by Sangh workers who attended the meeting.

He reminded RSS workers that their work was for the good of society and not for self or publicity.
