Change mindsets to get desirable results of abrogation of Art 370: RSS Chief | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Oct 2: The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Dr. Mohan Bhagwat today said that abrogation of Article 370 was a big victory for the nationalist people but cautioned that desirable results of this change would be achieved only by changing mindsets. “Abrogation of Article 370 was the result of the long struggle and numerous sacrifices of the people since the days of Praja Parishad”, Dr. Bhagwat said, adding, “the system in Jammu and Kashmir has been changed after scrapping of the Article 370”. The RSS chief was addressing a gathering of prominent citizens of Jammu at Jammu University on the third day of his four-day visit to Jammu. “Changing dispensation is important but society can not be overhauled just by changing system only. There is a need to change mindset also”, Bhagwat said while referring towards the constitutional reforms going on in Jammu and Kashmir after August 5, 2019. He stressed the need of changing the mindsets of those who are running the system to yield encouraging results of the abrogation of Article 370. Mohan Bhagwat visited Jammu and Kashmir first time after August 5, 2019, recalled the long struggle of the people for the abrogation of Article 370. “Since the days of Praja Parishad many agitations were launched for the abrogation of Article 370”, he said and mentioned towards nationwide stir launched by the founder of Bharatiya Jan Sangh, Dr. Shyama Prashad Mukherjee in the early 1950s for total integration of J&K with Indian Union. Founder of the Bharatiya Jan Sangh (BJS)-a predecessor of BJP, Mukherjee, had launched “Ek Vidhan, Ek Pradhan, and Ek Nishan” movement in the early 1950s along with Dogra icon Pandit Prem Nath Dogra-who was heading Praja Parishad in J&K. Mukherjee was strongly opposed to Article 370. He fought against it inside and outside the Parliament with one of the goals of Jana Sangh being its abrogation. After the abrogation of Article 370 on August 5, 2019, Sangh Parivar observed that the dream of Mukherjee has been accomplished as he had sacrificed his life for the total integration of J&K with the Indian Union. Recalling the worst period during the first and second wave of the deadly Coronavirus, Mohan Bhagwat said the entire world is adopting the basic element of Indian ways of life for its growth and sustenance amid the pandemic. “Sustainable development and eco-friendly life is the only way to live a peaceful life”, he said and made it clear that the Indian way of life is the only alternative before the world today. “The entire world is returning to the basic elements of Indian thought process to practice developmental ways while being environment friendly after facing Coronavirus”, the RSS chief said and stressed eco-friendly growth. “India is the world Guru and not a world superpower. And this is a defining difference between us and the rest of the world”, he said. |
