Listen to the weakest section of the society to help ending the religious conversions, believe Mohan Bhagwat, the RSS chief. He asserted in Bhopal today:Â
Â
He said: "The impasse would not end until the weakest sections of society were heard sensitively." He stressed the need to bring even the last person into the mainstream.
Â
Addressing a meeting focused on social harmony at Bhopal, Bhagwat called for sustained efforts to eliminate discrimination in society by embracing the most marginalised. He warned that the society would gain nothing if it failed to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the weakest sections.
Â
He said conversions would continue unless the last person in society was supported, heard, and respected. “If we do not stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the last person, it will not benefit society or the country, and conversions will not stop,” Bhagwat told the participants of the event.

He with Antyodaya, the RSS leader and ideologue of the Bharatiya Jana Sangh (BJS), the forerunner to the BJP, the RSS Chief, meant the “upliftment of the last person” or “serving the last person in the queue,” focusing on prioritising the welfare of the most marginalized.

As per an RSS statement, Bhagwat said social harmony was intrinsic to Indian society and stressed the need for sustained dialogue and collective effort to strengthen it. Attempts were being made to create divisions by spreading confusion among tribal and other communities, while people living in the subcontinent for thousands of years shared the same DNA.

The RSS chief underlined the need for continuous engagement and mutual understanding and said the strong must support the weak, it added.
Â
Representatives from various social groups and organisations from 16 administrative districts of the RSS’s Madhya Bharat prant participated in the meeting, which was held in two sessions. The meeting ended with a resolution that society would address local issues through collective efforts without waiting for government intervention, with speakers emphasising the goal of strengthening society as a whole, the release said.
