clocking 100 years.
At the moment of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh’s centenary on Thursday, PM Modi wrote an extensive blog titled “100 years of national service.”
Taking to his X, PM Modi shared the blog and said: “A hundred years ago, on the day of Vijayadashami, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh was floated with the aim of social service and nation-building. Over a long period, countless volunteers have dedicated their lives to realising this resolve. He had tried to express his thoughts on this in words.
He described the Sangh as a “virtuous incarnation” of India’s eternal national consciousness, recalling how it began on Vijayadashami under founder KB Hedgewar.
PM Modi also said RSS volunteers had dedicated themselves to social service, education, women’s empowerment, tribal welfare and relief work amidst crises. He likened the Sangh’s influence to a river that nurtures everything it touches, noting its role in fostering patriotism, preserving traditions and awakening self-respect in society.
The PM also lauded the RSS for standing firm amidst the freedom struggle and later challenges. He commended its efforts in fighting discrimination and untouchability, recalling the teachings of past leaders who championed social harmony.
PM Modi also said the RSS’s work with tribal communities, disaster relief, and dedication to “Nation First” remain vital today. He welcomed its roadmap to address modern challenges such as demographic change, family values and environmental protection, calling the centenary a proud milestone for India.
