The President of India Shri Ram Nath Kovind graced and addressed Yuva Sammelan organized by ‘My Home India’ to inspire the youth to achieve the goals of ‘New India and Atmanirbhar Bharat’ at Vigyan Bhawan, in New Delhi on Saturday, July 9, 2022.
My Home India is a National NGO, which aims at bringing emotional integration between people from different parts of the country. The main motive of the initiative of the NGO is to build an ecosystem of nationhood among the promising youth of the country. Commemorating the celebration of 75 years of independence under ‘Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav’, Yuva Sammelan will anchor through the people of India, the culture and achievements of our nation.
Speaking on the occasion, the President said that youth are both the present and the future of any country. Their talent and ability play a special role in making a country proud. Therefore, it would be fair to say that today’s youth is the history creator of tomorrow.
The President said that we know India has the largest population of adolescents and youth in the world. This is called the ‘Demographic Dividend’ which is an opportunity for our country. We should take all necessary steps to take advantage of this opportunity. It should be our aim that our youth contribute to the maximum in the development and progress of the country. The future of our country depends on the enterprise and determination of the youth.
The President said that it is a matter of great pride for all of us that Indian youth have laid the foundation of many start-ups by their talent and hard work. Today’s youth is on the path of becoming a job creator rather than a job seeker. It is very important that the youth acquire some kind of skill and choose their career on the basis of that skill. Today’s era is of specialization. Only technology and expertise can take our youth to the top. “Indian youth have reached the highest level in every field with their education and enterprise. Indian youth have made significant achievements in all fields – medicine, technology and technology” he asserted.
