Introduction: Rashtreeya Swayamsevak Sangh popularly known as RSS, has been in the news for the last 87 years

for various reasons. It is generally accepted as the only medium in India for her social and cultural renaissance. RSS cadre is regarded as the manifestation of discipline and staunch nationalism. Dr. Kesav Baliram Hedgewar, the founder of RSS was born on the 1st April 1889. As such the year 1988-89 was celebrated as Dr. Hedgewars Birth Centenary year throughout the country.

The School : One apart from the crowd

Moulding the little ones : A better tomorrow

Our trust has been endeavoring to infuse the young children with nationalism, culture, ethics and traditions in addition to formal education. Thus we started a school Sri Kesava Sishu Vidya Mandir in the year 1989 with a modest strength of 20 students. This middle school has a history of over two decades now. At present 250 students are enrolled in sishu (Nursery) to 7th standards. The medium of instruction is Telugu, the mother tongue of the locals.

The students not only excel in their studies, but they are also pro-active to participate in various competitions such as sports, science, cultural activities, and debates etc. The school is being run in 5 class rooms in a shed. Now it is decided to construct a good building for the school. The plan and estimate for the proposed building have been obtained from an architect. Other activities: Matru Mandali, Samskara Kendra and Bala Gokula centres in surrounding villages Mathru Mandali is an organization for women to strengthen themselves in all aspects with emphasis on culture and scientific reasoning of our traditions, nationalism etc. Samskara kendra is a centre for building personality development, patriotism, and culture among the children in backward and slum areas. Balagokula is a centre which promotes competitions in sports and cultural activities between different schools.

Dr. Hedgewarjis Memorial, Kandakurthi As part of the celebrations, a befitting memorial was constructed at Kandakurthi, a small village in Indur (Nizamabad) District of our state. Dr. Hedgewarjis forefathers hailed from this village. The residence of his forefathers was converted into a memorial. The temples of Lord Kesavamurthi (the family Deity of the Hedgewars) and Lord Sri Rama were also renovated in Kandakurthi.
