At his book release, Gadkari credits RSS and ABVP for his conviction, sensitivity
Union minister Nitin Gadkari on Friday credited his sense of conviction and purpose in life to his ideological mentor, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, and its students' union, the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad. 'Top RSS leaders' life and works, founded on sacrifice and selfless service, inculcated in me the seeds of sensitivity and patriotism. The RSS, which is focused on character building and nation building, left a lasting impression on me in my formative years. And it helped me evolve both as an individual and a politician,' Gadkari said. He was speaking at the release of his Marathi book Sanghatil Manavi Vyavasthapan (Human resource management in RSS) in Nagpur. 'I learnt in the RSS and ABVP that politics is an instrument of socio-economic reforms. This sense of conviction and sensitivity came from the RSS and ABVP,' he said, after the book was released by Sunil Ambekar, communication in-charge of RSS. 'Human relationship is the biggest strength of politics and social work, and I learnt it in the the RSS. It should not be misused to serve vested interests,' he said. The senior leader also offered glimpse into his early childhood days. 'As a schoolboy, once I came home and savoured the home-made 'ladoo'. Outside, my friend was waiting. Seeing this, my mother expressed her disappointment. Even if you have one piece of sweet, you should share it with your friends. This lesson has stayed with me,' Gadkari said. 'Now, I have a fourteen-seater dining table at home. Anybody who walks in during lunch time is asked to join me. These are small lessons but very important in shaping your lives. Similarly, watching RSS stalwarts helped in building my sensitivity. I closely saw how these leaders always upheld nation first,' Gadkari added.

The book, which happens to be the first one written by Gadkari, provides a unique perspective on the RSS's operational style, authored by an internationally recognised figure. Sunil Ambekar, All India Prachar Pramukh of the RSS, speaking at the book launch event at Vanamati, emphasised Gadkari's ability to articulate the organisation's methods in a simple and relatable manner. "Often, significance of positive influences in our lives is realised only later," Ambekar stated, adding, "Nitin Gadkari has effectively described the RSS's ethos and working style through his book, using straightforward language. " The event also featured senior editor and thinker Vivek Ghalsasi as chief guest. Rajhans Prakashan's Naresh Sabjiwale was also present. During the book launch ceremony, individuals who contributed to the book's creation were also honoured. Ambekar also shed light on the inspiration behind the RSS's founding and its century-long journey. He said, "Nitin Gadkari, as an RSS volunteer, shares his personal experiences. His insights, gained as a volunteer and student activist, resonate deeply with society. Maintaining humility and simplicity while achieving success is a significant challenge, and Gadkari successfully navigated this." Vivek Ghalsasi said, "While Gadkari's upbringing within the RSS and student movement is notable, the influence of his mother, late Bhanutai, is equally profound. His ability to work without self-aggrandizement is commendable." Gadkari himself attributed his life's transformation to his mother, the RSS, and the student movement. "All the three instilled in me a strong value system," he said. He also acknowledged the influence of figures like Balasaheb Deoras, Bhaurao Deoras, Dattopant Thengdi, Baburao Vaidya, and Yashwantrao Kelkar. "Their association was a constant source of inspiration," Gadkari said, emphasising that the book reflects his personal experiences as a volunteer. Gadkari credited senior journalist Shailesh Pandey with the book's articulation and significant contribution. "Conviction is essential for decisive action and social sensitivity, and I gained that through my upbringing," Gadkari said. "The desire to serve the nation and society was instilled in me through my values," said the Union minister. RSS idealogue Ashutosh Adoni served as the master of ceremony. The event featured a solo performance by singer Amar Kulkarni and concluded with 'Pasaydan' recital by Radha Thengdi.
