Kuppahalli Sitaramayya Sudarshan was the former sarsanghachalak of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, a Hindu nationalist organisation which is said to be devoted to social welfare. Sudarshan was born in Raipur in a Kannadiga Hindu family. He was nine when he first attended an RSS shakha. He was appointed as a pracharak in 1954. Only full-time members of RSS can become pracharaks. His first posting as a pracharak was in Raigarh district. In 1964 he was made the prant pracharak of Madhya Bharat at a fairly young age.This appointment perhaps was the first hint of the bigger things to come. In 1969 he was appointed convener of the All-India Organisations' Heads. This was followed by a stint in the North-East and he took over as the chief of the Boudhik Cell two years later. Since 1990, Sudarshan has been a joint general secretary of the organisation. He has the rare distinction of having held both posts of sharirik and baudhik pramukh on different occasions
