Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi visited Dr Hedgewar Smruti Mandir at Nagpur in Maharashtra on 30 March 2025 and paid tributes at the memorials dedicated to Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh founder Param Pujaniya Dr. Keshav Baliram Hedgewar, and the second Sarsanghchalak, revered MS Golwalkar (Guruji). RSS Sarsanghchalak Shri Mohan Bhagwat and other senior Pracharaks were present during PM Shri Narendra Modi’s visit to the Smruti Mandir.
During the visit, PM Shri Modi also paid his tributes to Dr. BR Ambedkar at Deekshabhoomi, where the architect of India’s Constitution converted to Buddhism in 1956.
Shri Modi also laid the foundation stone of Madhav Netralaya Premium Centre at Nagpur and addressed a huge public meeting.
After visiting the RSS headquarters, PM Shri Modi, in a social media post, said, “Visiting Smruti Mandir in Nagpur is a very special experience. Making today’s visit even more special is the fact that it has happened on Varsha Pratipada, which is also the Jayanti of Param Pujya Doctor Sahab. Countless people like me derive inspiration and strength from the thoughts of Param Pujya Doctor Sahab and Pujya Guruji. It was an honour to pay homage to these two greats, who envisioned a strong, prosperous and culturally proud Bharat.”
After visiting the Deekshabhoomi in Nagpur, PM Shri Modi said, “Deekshabhoomi in Nagpur stands tall as a symbol of social justice and empowering the downtrodden. Generations of Indians will remain grateful to Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar for giving us a constitution that ensures our dignity and equality. Our government has always walked on the path shown by Pujya Babasaheb, and we reiterate our commitment to working even harder to realise the India he dreamt of. “
