RSS to discuss Manipur-WB situation, farmers' protest, UCC at Nagpur meeting

The current situation in Manipur and West Bengal's Sandeshkhali, farmers' protest, Uniform Civil Code and a policy on checking the rise in population are some of the topics likely to come up for discussion in the three-day meeting of the Rashtriya Swayanmsewak Sangh's (RSS) top decision-making body starting from March 15 in Nagpur, sources said.
The Gyanvyapi mosque and Mathura Eidgah issues are the two topics which the Sangh might refrain from taking up at the meeting.

Resolving the disputes between two communities (Meitei-Kuki) in Manipur and addressing the issues of protesting farmers over their demand of a Minimum Support Price for their produce from the government are the two areas on which the Sangh affiliates will make a presentation at the Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha (ABPS) meeting.

Extending the implementation of UCC to other parts of the country and an acceptable to all policy on population are also likely to come for broader discussion in the meeting ahead of the Lok Sabha polls.

BJP's top brass, including its president JP Nadda, general secretary (organisation) BL Santhosh and national general secretary Sunil Bansal will attend the meeting in Nagpur.

Like all other affiliates, the BJP leadership would also share the details of the work and its performance in the last one year or so at the meeting.

Every third year, the ABPS is held at Sangh's headquarters in Nagpur where it also holds elections for its top leadership. This time any change in top leadership looks unlikely.

Sources also said that the Sangh may pass a resolution on emphasising more on Swadeshi products and a simple way of living life without much pomp and show.
