Ahmedabad: Noting that the Covid-19’s impact has opened up new opportunities, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) has called upon the people to work on the Bharat-centric model of employment generation to strengthen the economy and achieve holistic development of all in consonance with the government’s “Make in India” initiative.
It also called for efforts to adopt new technologies and soft skills appropriate to the country’s social conditions.
A resolution to this effect was passed in the three-day convention of the RSS’ highest decision-making body, the Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha (ABPS), which concluded here on Sunday, said Dattatreya Hosabale, Sarkaryavah (General Secretary) of the organization.
Briefing reporters, he said the ABPS has urged the people to establish a healthy work culture based on Indian values. The ABPS emphasized that all people should play a proactive role in harnessing work opportunities.
For this, he said, thrust should be given to the Bharatiya economic model that is human-centric, labor-intensive, eco-friendly, and lays stress on decentralization and equitable distribution of benefits, as also augments rural economy, and the MSME and agro-based industries.
The areas like rural employability, unorganized sector employment, jobs to women, and their overall participation in the economy should be boosted.
Hosabale said India has abundant resources and great potential which it should now tap to make the country self-reliant. The economy plays an important role in making a country great.
He said the RSS also favored inculcating a civic and environmental sense among the people. The cleanliness drive, for example, created a great impact.
A grand narrative of Bharat is required with collaboration, cooperation, and networking of all as India celebrates 75 years of Independence, he added.
Citing the Freedom Struggle, he said everybody participated in it in his or her own way. They were, as an ecosystem, invariably associated with a grand dream of what an Independent India should be like.
