AALO, SEP 5:
The Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports is organising the 30th National Youth Festival as the Viksit Bharat Young Leaders Dialogue (VBYLD) 2027, in line with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of Viksit Bharat @2047, providing young people across the country an opportunity to contribute ideas for nation-building.
The national dialogue will be held in New Delhi from January 10 to 12, 2027. Outstanding ideas emerging through the initiative may get an opportunity to be presented before the Prime Minister.
The first stage of the Viksit Bharat Challenge Track is an online quiz, which is currently open and will close on September 30, 2026. Youth aged 15 to 29 years can participate free of cost through the MY Bharat portal after registration.
Those qualifying in the quiz will proceed to the essay round, followed by district- and state-level championships, culminating in the National Dialogue in New Delhi. All participants will receive certificates of participation, while successful candidates will gain exposure and opportunities for recognition and leadership at district, state and national levels.
The initiative aims to bring together youth from diverse social and cultural backgrounds while promoting leadership, innovation, creative thinking and active participation in nation-building.
MY Bharat West Siang, in coordination with educational institutions and youth organisations, has urged eligible youth, particularly students and those associated with the National Service Scheme (NSS), MY Bharat and other youth platforms, to participate and showcase their ideas and potential.
The initiative is free of cost and provides young people an opportunity to demonstrate their leadership abilities and contribute to the vision of Viksit Bharat @2047. Youth seeking details on the competition, rules and registration can visit the MY Bharat portal at mybharat.gov.in.
The youth of West Siang have been urged to make use of the opportunity and become active contributors to the nation’s development journey. (DIPR)
