Rambhau Mhalgi

RMP government 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 a learning establishment for government leadership aspirants and current government leaders of India. [10] In 1982, Pramod Mahajan, senior BJP leader, opened Rambhau Mhalgi Prabodhini at Keshav Srushti campus at Uttan village, near Bhayandar. [12] [13]

In January 2020, the Congress party objected to training government officials at RMP citing right-wing political leaning of RMP. [14] [15]
