Addressing a gathering of RSS volunteers (karyakartas) at the ongoing Rashtriya Shiksha Chintan Baithak at Adi Shankara Nilayam, Veliyanad, near Piravom, Bhagwat underlined the need for a deep, realistic understanding of education from the Indian perspective. "Our background is shaped by colonial systems. We must develop our own competence, lead by example, and forge bonds of mutual understanding to bring others along," he said.
