Mohan Bhagwat, chief of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), has called for legal regulation of content streaming on OTT platforms, attributing it as a factor in 'moral corruption.' The announcement was made during the customary Vijayadashmi rally held at Reshimbagh ground.

Bhagwat underscored the significance of value-based education, as recognized by the National Education Policy, contending that it requires capable teachers to set examples for it to be impactful. He suggested creating a system for teacher orientation to fortify this initiative.

Furthermore, Bhagwat stressed the critical period between ages three and twelve in shaping a child's character through home education. He urged a mindful use of social media for societal unity rather than division or promoting indecency.
