RSS is modern ‘akshay vat vriksh’ of India’s immortal culture: PM Modi in Nagpur

PM Modi in Nagpur: Prime Minister Narendra Modi lauded the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), calling it the modern ‘akshaya vata vriksh’ (5100-year-old banyan tree), a symbol of India’s immortal culture. He praised the selfless service of RSS volunteers across various spheres and regions of the country, highlighting their role in nation-building, social service, and cultural preservation.

During the foundation stone laying ceremony of Madhav Netralaya Premium Centre in Nagpur, Prime Minister  Modi said, “…The ideas that were seeded a hundred years back are before the world like a ‘vat vriksh’ today. Principles and ideologies give it heights and the lakhs and crores of swayamsevak are the branches of it. It is not a simple ‘vat vriksh’, but RSS is the modern ‘akshay vat vriksh’ of India’s immortal culture…”
