<h1>Nationalist leader urges self-reliance, stronger security and social harmony; condemns vigilantism, calls for unbiased action and swadeshi</h1> A senior leader of a nationalist volunteer organisation urged national self-reliance and stronger security capabilities, citing a recent cross-border terror attack and foreign responses as reasons to test international friendships and enhance vigilance. The speaker advocated social harmony, respect for beliefs and rule of law, condemned vigilantism and provocation, and called for unbiased government action and civic intervention to maintain order. He warned of foreign and domestic forces exploiting unrest in neighbouring states, urged economic swadeshi and reduced dependence, and linked current development models to environmental degradation affecting regional water security.
