The prime minister emphasized that India’s youth, with their unparalleled energy, innovation and dedication, are the driving force behind the nation’s progress. He said the dialogue will provide a meaningful platform for young leaders from different parts of the country to exchange ideas, share aspirations and actively contribute to the vision of a Viksit Bharat.

Modi also shared a post by Union Minister of Labour and Employment Mansukh Mandaviya, who welcomed thousands of young participants arriving in the national capital for the event.

“Sashakt Yuva, Viksit Bharat! Three thousand energetic youth from across the country have reached Delhi for the Viksit Bharat Young Leaders Dialogue,” Mandaviya wrote.

Mandaviya further said this vibrant youth power, inspired by India’s rich cultural heritage, is prepared to present its vision for a developed India before Prime Minister Modi. He noted that the dialogue reflects the growing role of young Indians in shaping the country’s future.

Building on the success of its first edition, the Viksit Bharat Young Leaders Dialogue 2026, being held from Jan. 9 to 12, marks a significant step forward. New initiatives such as Design for Bharat and Tech for Viksit Bharat have been introduced, expanding discussions to innovation, entrepreneurship and technology-driven solutions.

The participation of the Indian youth diaspora from abroad adds a valuable global perspective to the dialogue.

A key highlight of the event is its conclusion on Jan. 12, observed as National Youth Day in honor of Swami Vivekananda. More than a forum for discussion, the Viksit Bharat Young Leaders Dialogue aims to evolve into a movement, encouraging young Indians to address national challenges, lead with confidence and channel their ambitions toward public service and nation-building.
