Bhagwat not satisfied with Sangh membership in Bengal
January 23rd, 2010 - 12:04 am ICT by IANSKolkata, Jan 22 (IANS) Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat Friday said he was not satisfied with the membership figure of the organisation in West Bengal.
“As far as the RSS all-India membership is concerned, we have altogether 40 lakh registered members. The figure is only one lakh in West Bengal and I am not satisfied with it. We will increase this number in the coming years,” Bhagwat told reporters at an interactive session here.
He said the RSS would try to increase the number of its shakhas (branches) in the state.
“Our target is that the RSS should have its shakhas in at least one lakh locations across the country in the coming years,” Bhagwat said, adding that the RSS always keeps on reviewing its internal policies and carries out necessary restructuring periodically within the organisation.
