"Recent outrageous incidents bear testimony to it," he said, without identifying the spate of recent gang-rapes, at the Hindu Chaitanya Sibir premises near Kaza village, 25 km from here.

The former judge found a steep deterioration in traditions, restraint and behaviour of people in the last 50 years and stressed the need to restore and preserve Indian culture, as he lauded the discipline, character and Indian virtues of RSS workers.

The Shibir (camp) wore a festive look, as around 23,000 swayamsevaks from each of Andhra Pradesh's 23 districts attended the function.
