RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat emphasized the vital role of women's freedom in societal growth during a recent address in Nagpur. He asserted that women possess unique capabilities that can benefit all when given the opportunity, stating, 'If women are given freedom, they can help everyone grow.' Bhagwat also critiqued the notion of 'women's emancipation,' suggesting that true freedom for women would inherently uplift society. Highlighting the importance of 'matrushakti' (maternal power), he credited the success of the Dharampeth Women’s Bank to the contributions of women. Additionally, he discussed the broader concept of religion as societal work rather than mere rituals, underscoring the need for organized efforts to foster community development. Bhagwat's comments reflect a blend of traditional values and a call for increased recognition of women's roles in society.
