Currently, more than 50 thousand branches of RSS and about 90 lakh volunteers are involved in them.
The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), which has completed its hundred years of its establishment, has become the largest voluntary organization in the world today. Its more than 50 thousand branches and about 90 lakh volunteers are connected across the country. This is the same Sangh, which had only five people in the first branch. Let’s know how the Sangh works? How are its officials selected? What is the meaning of names like co -proceedings, proceedings?
Every citizen of the country is eligible to become a member of RSS. There is no registration of its members. Most of its activities are conducted from branches, where all volunteers accumulate and participate in various activities. This branch can be held at any place, which is organized under the supervision of the branch head. Swayamsevaks come to the uniform of the union in the branch.
The saffron flag is considered the head
The head of the RSS is considered to be the saffron flag instead of a person and all the decisions are taken below it. The purpose of considering the flag as the head is to keep the organization free from any kind of corruption. The branch also starts with the prayer of the flag. Below this, volunteers discuss exercise and intellectual discussion. Plans are made in the branch at the local level.

Union volunteers take part in many activities, such as relief and rescue operations in disaster. Apart from this, there are a large number of schools across the country associated with RSS. There are also charity institutions and clubs. All different organizations are also associated with it, which work from the problems of workers to economic issues.
Money is conducted in Guru Dakshina
RSS is actually a non -beneficial organization and its financial needs are mainly met by voluntary donations of volunteers and well -wishers. RSS does not accept any government grant or foreign funding. The main source of its income is the ‘Guru Dakshina’ given by its members and supporters. For this, Guru Dakshina program is organized once a year. This donation is completely voluntary and there is no fixed amount. Apart from this, some donations are also made directly in the offices of the union.
RSS is committed to maintaining its financial transparency and keeps a complete account of its income and expenditure. This system ensures self -sufficiency by keeping the union free from external influences.
