Man Of The Millennia – Dr. Hedgewar

The present day Bharat exhibits a wave of all round progress, the driving force of which originates in the spirit of national resurgence within the Bharatiya society. According to Arnold Toynbee this process is a ‘kind of social drill’  and during this process the few who know and see have to create the workers who can transform the society into a missionary workforce.

Dr. K. B. Hedgewar – 1889 to 1940 was one such visionary leader, a master organiser as well as a dedicated patriot who created Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh in 1925. The organisation has brought about the onset of this atmosphere of national resurgence into the Bharatiya society. His biography is available in almost all Bharatiya languages.

Every scholar, researcher or thinker who wants to analyse the rise of Bharat in 21st century has to take into account the impact on the Bharatiya National Life created by Dr. Hedgewar through Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh work.

The translation in English of the biography of Dr. Hedgewar originally written in Marathi by Shri N. H. Palkar, a devoted Pracharak and in charge of RSS work in Maharashtra, namely ‘Man of the Millennia – Dr. Hedgewar’ by Sri Dr. Anil D Nene will provide a detailed account of the man and his mission for English readers.

Just three months before the launch of the book, Dr. Anil Nene passed away. This was a huge contribution by him for the national cause.
