KANPUR: Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat on Monday said India is the home of Hindu society and a symbol of security for Hindus across the world.

Speaking after inaugurating the newly constructed four-storey regional office of the RSS in Keshav Nagar here on the second day of his five-day visit to Kanpur, he said: "If India is secure and respected, Hindus around the globe will also be secure." It is the first building in Uttar Pradesh that the RSS has constructed, bringing all its functions under one roof.

"India is the motherland for those who identify themselves as Hindus. It is the land of sages, and we are descendants of that tradition," he said.

"The RSS is working towards uniting Hindu society in India, while similar efforts are taking place across the world," Bhagwat added. He underlined that the work of the Sangh is not limited to the organisation alone.
