The People's Volunteer Organisation (Matrabashi: Logõn ke Svayamsevaka Saṅgha, LSS) is an left-wing Netajist paramilitary and cultural organisation in Arthasthan. The LSS is the progenitor and leader of numerous subordinate organisations known as the Sangh Parivar that are present in all facets of Arthani society. The largest organization is the Arthani-led Satrian Section of the Workers' International the de facto ruling power of Arthasthan.
It was founded in 1922 as part of the Satrian anti-colonialist movement to provide character training through discipline and to unite Satria to form a pan-Satrian state. During the leadership of Nalini Gupta, the organisation became overtly leftist and represented the leftist factions of the Azad Fauj. After the LSS split from the Azad Fauj after the Great War, it shifted its political base to modern day Arthasthan. At the outbreak of the Satrian Rebellion, the LSS declared the beginning of the Arthasthan Liberation War and the formation of the Satrian Commandery. The organisation's militia forces fought against Etruria and then various Satrian states to secure Arthasthan's independence. After the war, it reformed the Commandery into Arthani People's Union and founded the Satrian Section as its main political wing. Gradually, the LSS grew into a prominent Arthani nationalist umbrella organisation, forming several affiliated organisations that established numerous schools, charities, and clubs to spread its ideological beliefs in the country.
The LSS and the Satrian Section share deep ties and thus considered by Euclean academics to be a single, practically inseparable, political movement. Together with the Satrian Section, it is one of the largest organisations in the world with over 10 million members, including the members of its subordinate network of economic groups, associations, and organisations. Along with the Satrian Section, it has a significant presence in all facets of Arthani society through its local and regional branches and various affiliated organisations.
