As our country was freed from the shackles of colonialism, an opportunity for inclusive, holistic development arose. A pall of gloom had descended on the potential excellence of the country due to centuries of foreign domination and subjugation. It is at this point of time that a student organization like the ABVP got established in our country, which, inspired by the great culture and traditions of the world’s oldest civilization, wanted to reconstruct India into a powerful, prosperous and proud Nation, committed as it was, to the grand notion of placing Her at the upper echelons of the global comity of Nations.
ABVP, with the aim of national reconstruction, commenced its multi-dimensional and multifarious activities as a nationwide student organization, touching every aspect of the societal spectrum. This student organization, which has immense faith in the latent strength of the entire educational fraternity, believes in coordinating and directing contemporaneous responsibilities of students towards constructive activities, staying above partisan politics and looking at every issue with a progressive lens. The ABVP strongly favours placing to the student, the idea of the keeping the Nation above everything else. It was this reason that the ABVP, for the past years of its formal existence, has consistently directed all its programmes, movements, demands and every sort of constructive activity towards the goal of National Reconstruction. There can be several ways of working with many and varied aims and objects in this country, but the ABVP, rising above parochial interests, had provided one, which was aptly captured in the title to the achievements to commemorate 50 years of its activities in 2009 as “ABVP 60 YEARS – A Movement for the Nation”
ABVP, in its National Conference in the year 1971, while explaining its role, mentioned that, “Students are not the citizens of tomorrow, but of today”. Students are not only partners in the educational world, but they are responsible citizens of the country, too. The ABVP, invoked all to treat student’s Power as Nation’s Power and not as a nuisance and proclaimed, “Student’s Power, Nation’s Power”. It was also mentioned that, instead of suppressing the voice of students’, they should be treated with respect. Being educated, independent and remaining devoid of all vested interests helps the students evolve into a dynamic mass, thereby transforming students’ power into a student movement. It is an endeavor of the ABVP to ensure that the student masses become such a national power which would play a leading role in public education, public service and peoples’ strength, along with taking the responsibility with due conviction to play a leading role in development while confronting corruption and anti-national attributes with fervent pride simulataneously.
The ABVP, has continuously struggled for comprehensive educational reforms. The ABVP feels that the new generation and the future successive generations of our country should have a clear knowledge of our glorious heritage and past, so that they develop a brotherhood for every Indian and feel the hardships their less fortunate brethren are undergoing. Through this, our future generations would dream of a great India, embracing the knowledge of the world in its strong roots, and making India a modern country, but with a unique identity of Her own. Education which teaches students not only to think about their careers, but also a conviction to do something about their fellow countrymen, is the education which is required today. Education for Life and Life for the country is a thought which should permeate amongst the students.
The greatest achievement of ABVP is that it has gifted the country a student organization which has been built through years of tireless efforts and devotion. A student organization which has relentlessly strived to enthuse generations of young people about their country and society, and which carries the strength to inspire and similarly offer opportunities for constructive activities to future generations of youth. The regular activities of ABVP include amongst others, waging a constant struggle against the increasing commercialization of education; and along with it dwelling on the challenges facing our country, like that of illegal Bangladeshi infiltration, terrorism, Maoist violence, separatist tendencies in Kashmir and other areas, to create an awakening of the entire society and channelize students’ power to remonstrate on such issues.
Basic Tenets of ABVP
“ABVP wants to build an ideal student movement which will work in the wider context of National Reconstruction, in the field of education with a firm belief in constructive activity, in the existence of educational community and in the need to stay above partisan politics”.
