This visit coincides with the centenary year of the RSS.\n\nDuring his trip, Bhagwat is expected to engage with members of the Indian diaspora and leaders of local organizations. In a post on social media, RSS Prachar Pramukh Sunil Ambekar announced that Bhagwat would be visiting the USA, Canada, and the UK from August 25, 2026, on the invitation of overseas local associations and organizations.\n\nEarlier, Bhagwat addressed the youth at the 15-year celebration of India's International Movement to Unite Nations (IIMUN) in Mumbai. He emphasized that protest can be a method to achieve consensus in a democracy, and that any agitation should aim to improve the system. Bhagwat noted that Gen Z and Gen Alpha are more honest than the current generation and that an honest appeal of patriotism and service resonates with them. He observed that this generation questions things differently and seeks logical answers.\n\nBhagwat stated that in a democracy, the method of debate, or \"shastrarth,\" is prevalent, where all perspectives are considered, leading to a comprehensive understanding of the truth. He urged that agitation should not be against individuals but should focus on system correction.",
