Ref. No. A/VIII -25-1960                                                   DELHI- 10-01-1960

Dear Friend,
            
                 The Eight Annual Session of Bharatiya Jana Sangh is going to be held at Nagpur on January 23-25, 1960 under the presidentship of Sri Pitamber Dass. About 3,000 delegates from all parts of the country are expected to attend the session and confer on the problems facing the country and the ways to tackle them.
                
                During the last twelve years a number of questions have come before the country. But with regret it has to be said that the Government have failed to provide a satisfactory solution to most of them. The situation on all fronts, economic, political, social, international, is daily becoming more and more grave. Due to Chinese aggression, and the existence of subversive elements cooperating with the invaders, even our freedom and national existence are in peril.
            
               …It is necessary that the democratic nationalist forces  come together and  make a determined bid to remove the feeling of despair and disppointment in the people by making them conscious of their inner strength and of the fundamental unity of the nation. This alone will enable them to face the existing dangers and enthuse them to engage themselves constructively in the building of a new and glorious Bharat. It needs our cooperative endeavour. Though you are not directly associated with Bharatiya Jana Sangh, yet your views, work and example have always been a source of inspirations and guidance in our effort to serve the nation. We take this opportunity to invite you to the session and request you to find some time to be with us at Nagpur….
          
         …If, however, your preoccupations render it entirely impossible for you to be personally present, you may kindly send us your message to guide us in this critical hour in the history of the nation. It will help Jana Sangh reflect the views of the nation and make it an effective instrument for the realisation of its ideals….
            
                Looking forward for your great cooperation in the service of the Mother.
                                                                                                  
                                                                                            Yours sincerely,
                                                                                    Deen Dayal Upadhyaya
