PUNE: The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh's (RSS) effort to give a saffron tinge to the booming information technology (IT) sector in the city is gaining momentum. Sangh's experiment of 'IT Milan', in which IT professionals are brought together to discuss RSS ideals once in a week, is attracting youths in large numbers and it's now mulling over organising special IT 'shakhas' in Pune.
"Number of youths joining IT companies is on rise. We have introduced the IT Milan concept to groom professionals towards RSS way of thinking," Katcheshwar Sahane, Western Maharashtra Prant Sanghachalak of RSS, said on Wednesday.
IT Milan is not a typical shakha involving exercise and games. "It is like a get-together. Various issues and problems faced by the nation, culture and religion are discussed in these get-togethers. The response in Pune is good and we could plan special shakhas for the IT people. The RSS is hunting for good professional brains and Pune IT sector has potential to provide it," said Sahane. Sangh was planning to start similar IT Milan in cities like Kolhapur and Solapur, he added.
