The BJP will launch a nationwide ‘Shri Guru Ravidas Maharaj Samrasata Sankalp Abhiyan’ from July 29 to mark the 650th birth anniversary of Sant Ravidas.

The campaign aims to spread Sant Ravidas’s message of social harmony, equality, service, and brotherhood to the masses and to strengthen outreach among the backward and Dalit sections of society.

According to the party’s programme, training and district-level workshops will be organised for workers in all districts from July 25 to 27 as part of the campaign preparations.

The campaign will officially be launched on July 29 with the ‘Samrasata Deep Abhiyan’ in Kashi (Varanasi), where Sant Ravidas carried out his spiritual work.

Following this, the “Kalash Vandan Abhiyan” will be conducted from July 29 to September 10. During this period, sacred soil from Seer Govardhanpur in Varanasi, the birthplace of Sant Ravidas, will be placed in Kalash and distributed to villages and settlements, so that more and more people can be connected to the campaign.

In the same sequence, under the “Sant Sampark Abhiyan” from July 29 to August 31, various saints, mahants, and religious leaders will be contacted to seek their blessings and spread the message of social harmony widely.

A major event of the campaign will be the “Guru Ravidas Maharaj Harmony Yatra,” scheduled from October 5 to November 5. The yatra will begin in Jalandhar, Punjab, pass through various states, and conclude in Varanasi.

The BJP said the campaign would be a significant initiative to spread the thoughts of Sant Ravidas across all sections of society, strengthen social harmony, and transform the values of service, equality and brotherhood into a mass movement.
