Public function
Initially an impressive physical demonstration of the skills acquired in the 20-day camp was exhibited by the trainees.  Soon after, rain followed.  Seeing all the Swayamsevaks sitting quietly in spite of the rain without stirring, Sri Arunodhayam, a leading businessman who presided over the function and Sri Vijayakumar, Advocate who graced the occasion, showered praises on RSS. 
Sri Arunodhayam in his speech said that he studied in a school run by Sri Ramakrishna Mission and the Swami ji, who was incharge of the Mission, used to always say that one’s religion is like the blood flowing in us.  As the blood remains the same right from birth to death, similarly one’s religion remains the same and hence one should not involve in conversion. 
Sri Vijayakumar said that he was impressed by RSS because of its discipline, work culture and punctuality. 
Sri G. Baktavatsalam, Organizing Secretary of RSS, North Tamil Nadu, in his address said that Gudiyatham and RSS has a binding in the sense that RSS was started in the year 1925 and Gudiyatham was carved out as a town in the same year.  As RSS instills patriotism amongst its cadre, Gudiyatham played a major role in preparing 10 lakh national flags and dispatched it throughout the country two months before independence, which became an historic event as it was done by 300 people within a period of 1 month. Further he highlighted the role of RSS in bringing unity amongst the various strata of society, its role in Sri Lanka, how the concept of offering is developed in the Swayamsevaks etc. 
Earlier, Sri Mahesh, who was the Secretary of the camp highlighted about the 20 days camp. Welcome address and introduction was given by Sri L Natarajan, Varga Adhikari of the camp. Sri Ramakrishna Prasad is the Palak Adhikari of the Camp.  Sri Nagarajan, Vellore Vibhag Karyawah delivered vote of thanks.
