The government of India has launched special commemorative coins and stamps to mark the 100th anniversary of the RSS, a prominent socio-cultural organisation known for its contributions to national unity and service.

The announcement was made by the office of Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman via a post on X, highlighting the significance of the RSS’ century-long journey of dedication and social impact.

The initiative has been widely appreciated, with many viewing it as a fitting tribute to an organisation that has shaped India’s socio-cultural landscape for a century.

The organisation’s centenary celebrations have drawn attention to its widespread contributions, with events and programs held across India to reflect on its legacy.

The release of these commemorative items underscores the government’s recognition of the RSS’ enduring impact on Indian society.
