Addressing research scholars at the University of Lucknow, the RSS chief said education and healthcare were fundamental necessities and should not be treated as commercial activities. “Both quality education and quality healthcare are so costly that a common man can’t afford them. This should change. Advancements have taken place for good but the basic necessities should be available to everyone across the country,” said Bhagwat.
