Samba July 29: Pradesh Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Vice President Surjeet Singh Slathia on Monday highlighted the pivotal role of youth in nation-building, saying the road towards Viksit Bharat lies in the hands of India’s young and rich human resource.
Addressing BJP Morcha Yuva Sammelan here, Slathia exhorted the youth to play a proactive role in the development, progress and civilisational resurgence of the country.
“The future of our beloved nation lies in the hands of young people, whose energy, talent, creativity, and commitment are vital for achieving our collective aspirations,” Slathia said. He referred to the mark being left by Indian youth across the country and around the world in every sector. The dependence of the countries across the continents on Indian human resources is making every compatriot proud, he added.
The former minister said the path-breaking initiatives taken by the NDA government under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the past over a decade have opened vistas of opportunities for the youth. “Skill development and startups are the two crucial measures that have changed the entire scenario and made a real difference in growth and employability. In the fast-evolving world, skill enhancement is proving a game changer, he said while exhorting the youth to benefit from the mega startup scheme and shape their career with a sense of confidence.
Slathia said the BJP is committed to youth empowerment. He referred to strides made for generating employment in the past over ten years in both government and private sectors.
He urged the young Karykartas of the Yuva Morcha to intensify their public outreach campaign and make the youth aware of initiatives like Skill India, Startup India and Digital India, which are designed to support and uplift the young minds across the country in general and Jammu & Kashmir in particular.
The BJP leader exuded confidence that given the dedication and determination of youth, all challenges facing the nation can be met with fortitude.
