Suresh Joshi, National General Secretary of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), is visiting J&K on a four days trip starting from tomorrow. He is likely to discuss current political and law and order situation in the region with top leaders of J&K unit of BJP.
The RSS leader went to Sangh headquarters at Kershav Bhawan, Ambphalla after landing and met all the BJP and Sangh leaders there.
According to the sources, the RSS leader is also scheduled to meet Union Minister, Dr Jitendra Singh on Tuesday and they both will discuss the prevailing situation in the UT.
