RSS changes base of some key office-bearers

The RSS has shifted the base of some of its key office-bearers, including the head of its intellectual cell, who has been sent to Rajasthan from Bihar, in what the organisation said was a routine exercise.
The decision was taken during the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh's three-day conclave in Jammu and Kashmir, which ended yesterday.

Prag Abhyankar, the organisations's all-India seva pramukh, has been transferred to Bengaluru from Indore, he said.

The seh-prachar pramukh (joint publicity chief) of RSS, Narender Thakur will now be positioned in Patna, the functionary told PTI over the phone.
Vijay Devangan, the organising secretary of Sahkar Bharti, has been transferred to Guwahati to look after the Sangh's works, especially with students in northeastern region, he said.
Senior RSS functionary from Madhya Pradesh Raj Kumar Matale has been shifted to Meerut in Uttar Pradesh, he added.
