Prime Minister Narendra Modi rightly said once, that “the youth of India can do bigger things”. And the Prime Minister’s words had a heartening impact on the millions of youth who tried to move with their dreams.
The Yuvam conclave held last year in Kochi, Kerala made a possible attempt to boost the power of youth. The event was a tremendous success in every aspect with the Prime Minister’s own vision and clear cut message imbibed for the future leaders of new India.
Youth is the resource of any nation on earth. It’s an indelible asset to be held, supported and properly motivated, as they can be the driving force of nation building.
The unique guidelines once shared with the life and times of late Dr. A P J Abdul Kalam, are truly an open book, from where the young can read, to learn and follow his vision and the values of life.
Dr. Kalam envisaged the quality that youth should possess with amicable and hindsight. He was the true champion of youth and the forerunner to the cause.
Dr.Kalam who stepped into politics by becoming the President, is an example of how a young youth of Rameswaram could occupy the highest constitutional office in the country. His message is clear and inspired to be. Dr. Kalam always addressed the youth, their dreams and to the very end he himself taught the youth to be unique.
India ever since, had witnessed great youth movements and the vital spirit brought a sea change to the core. Youth should be the force and each of us should remember that the youth occupy the energy to lead the nation as the legacy of India’s freedom struggle wants.
