The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) is not changing but "gradually evolving" and "simply unfolding" with time, Mohan Bhagwat said on Sunday (January 11, 2026).
The RSS chief was addressing an event held at the organisation's office here to launch the song album of the upcoming film Shatak, which chronicles the 100-year journey of the RSS.
Singer Sukhwinder Singh, director Ashish Mall, co-producer Ashish Tiwari, and RSS functionary Bhaiyaji Joshi were present on the occasion.
"The organisation (RSS) is celebrating its centenary. But as the organisation evolves and takes on new forms, people perceive it as changing. However, it's not actually changing; it's simply unfolding gradually," Mr. Bhagwat said in his address.
“Just as a sprout emerges from a seed, and the mature tree, laden with fruits and flowers, is a different form, these two forms are distinct. Yet, the tree is fundamentally the same as the seed from which it grew," he added.
