Jammu, Jan 05: “The youth artists drawn from different areas of the Union Territory representing various districts serve as the ambassadors of Jammu & Kashmir at the national scene. The young artists are the messengers of peace, harmony and prosperity,” said Sarmad Hafeez, Secretary to Government Department of Youth Services and Sports while flagging off an 80-member contingent to represent the UT in the prestigious National Youth Festival (NYF), being held at Hugli in Karnataka from January 12 to 16.
Sarmad Hafeez was the chief guest in an impressive, colourful and well-attended flag-off function. He was accompanied by Director Youth Services and Sports J&K, Subash Chander Chibber; Joint Director Youth Services and Sports (J), Suram Chand Sharma; Joint Director Youth Services and Sports (K), Bashir Ahmed and a galaxy of District Youth Services and Sports Officers (DYSSOs).
While lavishing praise on the organisers for organising a 5-day-long programme in a most befitting manner, Sarmad said that the Youth Festivals serve as a launching pad to inculcate spirit and build camaraderie, friendship, brotherhood and togetherness among the participants.
He said that the government was committed to promoting youth activities and sports in the Union Territory.
Director Youth Services and Sports, Subash Chander Chibber presented a welcome address and extended thanks to the chief guest for gracing the occasion despite his busy schedule.
Earlier, young and experienced artists drawn from various districts of twin divisions exhibited the cultural diversity of the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir and also portrayed a picture of unity in diversity through their performances.
In multiple cultural events, the artists hailing from different districts of J&K exhibited the cultural diversity of the UT disseminating the message of the culture of their respective areas. The programme is being carried out under the aegis of the Department of Youth Services and Sports J&K.
The event is being adjudicated by a panel of experts comprising Bishan Das, former Cultural Officer, Academy of Art, Culture and Languages; Antu Kotwal, Folk Singer and Ravi Sharma, Choreographer.
The National Youth Festival in India is celebrated every year to commemorate the birth anniversary of Swami Vivekananda from January 12 to 16 with the aim to promote the concept of National Integration, the spirit of communal harmony and brotherhood among the youth. The youth from different states of India showcase their cultural prowess on a common platform.
A total of 524  youth artists drawn from various districts of the Union Territory took part in the Inter-District Festival, out of which an 80-member contingent has been selected for NYF including officials.
The selected teams for competitive events include folk songs of the artists from Bandipora district, a folk dance from Doda and Srinagar districts, while in non-competitive events, there is one act play from Budgam district and Bharatnatyam and Elocation from Doda and Kishtwar districts respectively.
