During Nitin Nabin-RSS meet, focus will be on Sangh deputing pracharaks to BJP

New Delhi: The spotlight will be on whether RSS loans any pracharak to BJP as party president Nitin Nabin prepares to attend his first Sangh meeting this month.

The three-day Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha, beginning March 13 in Samalkha near Panipat in Haryana, will be chaired by RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat. ABPS is the Sangh's top decision-making body and takes crucial organisational decisions.

At present, BJP state units in Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Goa and Manipur are without a general secretary (organisation). These posts are filled by RSS pracharaks deputed to BJP, serving as the organisational bridge between the two.


For several years, however, RSS has not assigned its full-time pracharaks to BJP. In 2025, RSS joint general secretary Arun Kumar had said the Sangh was "hard-pressed" for pracharaks as its own work had expanded and several affiliates were seeking full-timers.

Yet recent developments suggest churn. Two sangathan mantris - Hitanand Sharma in Madhya Pradesh and Kesava Vinayaga in Tamil Nadu - have been reassigned within the wider Sangh ecosystem. The timing has intensified speculation over whether the Pratinidhi Sabha could pave the way for fresh organisational arrangements.
