nationwide youth engagement initiative aimed at strengthening awareness and participation among young
citizens in the vision of Viksit Bharat@2047. Conducted through the MY Bharat portal, the initiative
witnessed participation from over 50.42 lakh youth representing all 28 States and 8 Union Territories,
making it one of the largest digital youth engagement exercises undertaken in the country.The Minister congratulated MY Bharat and the entire team on this remarkable achievement. He said that
the portal is catering to the aspirations of India’s youth, who constitute nearly 65% of the country’s
population below the age of 35 years.

just three years, MY Bharat has recorded 2.19 crore registrations, with thousands of new youth joining
every day.

recognition truly belongs to them and reflects the faith they have placed in the journey towards
Viksit Bharat.

space where young people can engage meaningfully, share their ideas, and contribute to the vision of the
Prime Minister to achieve Viksit Bharat@2047. This, he said, was clearly demonstrated when ideas
shared by youth through VBYLD found reflection in the Union Budget 2026.

emerged as a credible platform for meaningful youth engagement across India. She added that the portal
enables multiple forms of engagement through the organic and voluntary participation of young

community-driven action.
