RSS unveils Rs 150 crore headquarters 'Keshav Kunj' in Delhi
New Delhi: The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) has inaugurated its new headquarters, 'Keshav Kunj,' at Jhandewalan in New Delhi. Built on a 5 lakh square feet area, the complex features three towers, auditoriums, a library, a hospital, and a Hanuman temple.
According to reports, the ₹150 crore facility was entirely funded through public donations from RSS workers and associates. The headquarters includes 300 rooms, office spaces, and three large auditoriums with a combined seating capacity of over 1,300 people. A five-bed hospital, parking for up to 270 cars, and a research-focused library named 'Keshav Pustakalaya' are also part of the facility.
The three towers, 'Sadhana,' 'Prerana,' and 'Archana', serve different purposes, with 'Sadhana' housing offices, while 'Prerana' and 'Archana' function as residential complexes. An open space between these towers features a manicured lawn and a statue of RSS founder Keshav Baliram Hedgewar.
RSS functionaries began shifting to the new headquarters in September last year, vacating the Udaseen Ashram, where the organisation had operated for the past eight years. RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat is set to host the 'Karyakarta Milan' event at the new complex on February 19, ahead of the Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha meeting in Bengaluru from March 21 to 23.
