Anurag Thakur Exhorts Youth To Contribute Towards Nation-Building

Addressing a function as part of the Mera Yuva Bharat programme, Thakur said the portal set up as part of the initiative is for building confidence and leadership skills among the youth.

The primary objective of Mera Yuva Bharat is to make the portal a platform of the central government for youth development, he said.

Under the new arrangement, with access to resources and connection to opportunities, the youth will become community change agents and nation builders. Thakur also flagged off a Viksit Bharat Sankalp Yatra van, which will take the messages of the Centre's various development schemes and initiatives to beneficiaries across the city.

He said the yatra has already reached about 2.5 crore people and the beneficiaries have shared their experiences on how the government's policies have brought about a massive change in their lives in the last 10 years.
