An RSS-affiliated body said it will launch 'Garbha Sanskar' campaign for pregnant women to encourage them to read religious texts like Bhagavad Gita and Ramayana, chant Sanskrit mantras and practise yoga so that "sanskari and deshbhakt" babies are born.The programme has been developed with a holistic and scientific approach towards pregnancy, right from the conception to delivery to ensures babies learn sanskar (culture and values) in womb. The process will continue till they attain the age of two," a Samvardhinee Nyas functionary told PTI.

The programme will be implemented across the country by doctors associated with the Samvardhinee Nyas wing of Rashtra Sevika Sangh, a women's organisation of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS).Pregnant women and their families will be advised about various aspects of having a 'sanskari' child including taking healthy food, providing good surroundings and atmosphere, the Nyas functionary told PTI.For this, we have divided the country into five regions and each will have a team of 10 doctors who will implement the programme. Each of these doctors will start by taking up 20 cases of pregnancy in their respective regions," the Samvardhinee Nyas functionary told PTI.

The organisation has formed an eight-member central team for implementation of the Garbha Sanskar programme. The team comprises ayurvedic, homeopathy and allopathy doctors and a "subject expert".Every child taking birth, be it a boy or a girl, should come with good sanskar, good thoughts and be a deshbhakt (patriot). Our future generations should come to this world and grow up with a sense of service, values and culture, respect for women," another senior functionary of the Nyas said.

Under the programme, the Nyas functionary said, the pregnant women will be encouraged to chant some mantras in Sanskrit and read the Bhagavad Gita, Ramayana and other religious scriptures.
