RSS meet in Visakhapatnam to discuss demographic imbalance, drug abuse
The RSS's three-day All India Coordination Meeting began in Visakhapatnam on Wednesday, inaugurated by chief Mohan Bhagwat. The meeting will focus on demographic imbalance and drug abuse among youth, among other issues. Around 327 delegates from 32 Sangh-inspired organisations, including the BJP, are participating.
RSS publicity chief Sunil Ambekar said the meeting is not for executive decisions but to exchange experiences and strengthen coordination. The RSS also reported that registrations through its 'Join RSS' website rose from 57,423 between January and July 2025 to 1,23,287 in the same period of 2026, with over 65% below age 30.
The meeting will review the 'Panch Parivartan' campaign and deliberate on a 'Bharatiya Development Model' that looks beyond economic growth. Discussions on youth-led protests in India, including those at Jantar Mantar and Jharkhand, are also planned, sources told The Hindu.
Indian Opinion Analysis
All three sources reported the RSS meeting factually, with no significant divergence in stance. The Hindu added a detail on discussion of youth-led protests, while Times of India and Telangana Today focused on the official agenda. The coverage is uniform straight reporting of the RSS's stated priorities, which include sensitive topics like demographic imbalance. The notable number to watch is the surge in RSS registrations among youth, which the organisation itself highlighted as a measure of growing public interest.
