In his keynote address, Shri Bhupender Yadav spoke about youth power and its importance in Prime Minister\u2019s vision of\u00a0Viksit Bharat<\/em>. \u201cThe youth of India is dynamic and determined, and India\u2019s path to becoming a Global Leader rest upon their shoulders.

He also mentioned that the goal of the government is to convert youthful energy into a powerful force that lights up India’s sustainable future.<\/p>\n The Minister also spoke about the critical importance of economic reforms for achieving a Viksit Bharat.

The youth should initiate more tree plantations like the ones undertaken today at NMIMS, along with clean energy drives, and work shoulder-to-shoulder with the local communities.<\/p>\n During the event the Minister took part in a tree plantation ceremony under the initiative\u00a0‘Ek Ped Maa Ke Naam’.<\/em><\/p>\n Vice Chancellor, NMIMS University Dr Ramesh Bhat, in his welcome address emphasized, \u201cWe at NMIMS are committed to equipping our students with the skills and knowledge necessary to build a prosperous and sustainable nation.\u201d President SVKM and Chancellor Shri Amrish Patel shared about his contribution towards environment and society through his tree plantation initiatives.<\/p>\n The session concluded with a compelling video clip from the Prime Minister’s \u201cJoin My Bharat\u201d campaign, encouraging active youth engagement in India’s developmental journey.
