New Delhi, September 21

Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat will interact with the foreign press on September 24 to clear "any misconceptions they may have about the organisation", the organisation said in a statement on Saturday. 

"RSS chief has been interacting with different sections of the society from time to time and have been appraising them about the works and idea of the RSS. He also discusses current issues. Continuing that process, he will interact with representatives of foreign media on September 24," Arun Kumar, the Akhil Bharatiya Prachar Pramukh of the RSS, said.

The RSS chief would appraise the foreign press about its views on current and relevant issues of concern and hold a constructive discussion, Arun Kumar said.

This is a first of its kind interaction with representatives of the foreign press by the RSS chief. RSS is the ideological parent of the ruling BJP.

The meeting will be held at the Ambedkar International Centre here in central Delhi.  It comes exactly a year after Bhagwat's three-day lecture series in September last year, in which the Indian media had participated but the international media was largely left out.
