Rambhau Mhalgi Prabodhini is a not-for-profit organisation established in memory of the Rambhau Mhalgi.[1] Established in 1982, RMP is a training and research academy for voluntary activists and elected representatives of the people.[2] RMP operates nationally through its offices in Delhi,[3] Pune, Mumbai, and its headquarters in Thane.[4]

RMP is often linked with the Bharatiya Janata Party and right-wing Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh outfit.[5][4][6][7] It is a recognized research centre by Mumbai University.[8][9]

History

Rambhau Mhalgi

RMP leadership training mission was implemented first at the behest of parliamentarian Rambhau Mhalgi. Mhalgi was influenced by RSS thinker and BJP leader Deendayal Upadhyaya, who had conceived the idea of an academy for socio-political activists.[8] In 1982, Pramod Mahajan, senior BJP leader, opened Rambhau Mhalgi Prabodhini campus at Uttan village, near Bhayandar.[10][11] He was also the first Chairman of the institute.[citation needed]

In January 2020, the Congress party objected to training government officials at RMP citing right-wing political leaning of RMP.[12][13]
