Join Nirbhaya Karnataka this Saturday and Sunday (International Women's Day) to register your strong protest against the recent series of attacks inflicted on women in the name of 'morality', cultural policing or religious intolerance, attacks that are escalating as women resist and fight back.

400 people are expected to gather outside the office of the Director General of Police at Nrupathunga Road at 3:30 p.m along with the victims of the recent spate of attacks in Bangalore to submit a memorandum demanding punitive action against the violent acts of moral and cultural policing happening across Karnataka. The group will stand in silence on either side of the road, outside the office, holding placards, and either the Director General addresses the group or a small representative group goes in to his office and presents the memorandum.

Why is there a uniform for RSS functions? Is it compulsory to become a member? How does one get it?
The RSS develops through physical training, a sense of unity and brotherhood among the Swayamsevaks. For this purpose a uniform is always considered as quite helpful. However, uniform is prescribed for special functions, it is not compulsory in daily Shakhas. It is not provided by RSS, but as a Swayamsevak realizes its importance, he prepares the uniform at his own expenses.
Why RSS insists on half pant in uniform and daily Shakhas?
It is not a matter of insistence but of convenience. The daily Shakha program consists of physical exercises. For this purpose, a half pant is found to be suitable and affordable to all.

The daily programs of Shakha consist of physical exercises, patriotic songs, group discussions on various subjects, reading of good literature and a prayer to our motherland.
How many members and how many RSS shakhas are there in Bharat?
There are Shakhas in approximately 50,000 villages and towns of Bharat. As RSS does not keep a formal membership or register of Swayamsevaks, the exact number of Swayamsevaks is difficult to count.
