Mumbai: 12th June: In a democracy it is essential that the
elected representatives should possess all the required qualities for such a
role. Without that any work conducted from the Gram Panchayat to the Parliament
level cannot truly lead to people’s welfare. This is crucial for India poised
to race ahead in the 21st century. Realizing this need Rambhau
Mhalgi Prabodhini (RMP) has been training elected representatives just like
other sections of the society for the past 4 decades. A 3-day training workshop
was organized for the political party workers and office bearers from
Chhattisgarh at RMP’s Knowledge Excellence Centre in Uttan near Mumbai. In all 54

Need to distinguish between crowd and organized group

Sandeep Lele said, “We need to understand the difference between crowd and organized group. The one present on railway stations is a crowd, while the one that works for an institute with a common goal is an organised group. Aspects like management of upcoming tasks, understanding of the bureaucracy, strategy to reach out to every booth, coordination with social and spiritual groups, regular PR with people and teamwork are crucial in politics.” Mr. Madhav Bhandari explained the success story from Jan Sangh to BJP, while Mr. Jameer Mokashi guided on teamwork, team building and communication skills.
