SPANNED ACROSS 12 MONTHS, THE MEGA EVENTS WILL END ON VIJAYADASHAMI 2026, AND WILL NOT BE CONFINED TO CELEBRATIONS.

- Pawan Dixit

LUCKNOW: Far from being limited to festivities, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh's (RSS) year-long centenary celebrations, to be launched on Vijayadashami 2025, will be a large-scale outreach initiative aimed at expanding the organisation's presence and increasing volunteer participation across the country.

Spanned across 12 months, the mega events will end on Vijayadashami 2026, and will not be just confined to celebrations. The RSS has planned to reach out to maximum households and engage as many people as possible in Uttar Pradesh.

For organisational purposes, the RSS has divided Uttar Pradesh into two kshetras (regions) -- Purab (eastern) and Paschim (western).

The eastern region comprises four prants -- Kashi, Goraksh, Awadh, and Kanpur. The western region comprises Meerut, Brij, and Uttarakhand.
