every human-being comes out. A swayamsevak is a person who has to do
seva and do seva to the person who does seva also. Society is
God. Many rise to occasion and there was a stimulus that kept active. But
we swayamsevak need to be more active now as rehabilitation is
there. We have to think on the need; serve the society continuously
till it reaches the ‘last man in the last row’. Being Sarsanghachalak the best
suitable word to pat you is ‘Sabaash’, said Shri Mohan Bhagwat.
Shri Kalyan Singh Mahanagar Sanghachalak and Prant Go-Seva
Pramuk was present on the occasion.
