Viksit Bharat depends on Viksit Yuva, says Arunachal Governor
Arunachal Pradesh Governor KT Parnaik on Tuesday called upon the youth to remain disciplined, value-driven, and service-oriented, saying that the vision of ‘Viksit Bharat’ can be achieved only through ‘Viksit Yuva’.
Addressing the 23rd Rajya Puraskar award ceremony of the Bharat Scouts and Guides at Lok Bhavan here, the governor said the strength of India tomorrow will be shaped by the strength and character of its youth today, an official Statement said.
Congratulating the awardees, Parnaik expressed confidence that they would inspire their peers, and encouraged them to set higher goals by aspiring for the Rashtrapati Puraskar, the highest honour in the Scouts and Guides movement.
He said the organisation truly reflects the spirit of nation-building through its focus on character-building, service, and leadership.
Advising the youth to strike a fine balance between tradition and technology, the governor stressed the importance of physical and mental fitness.
He urged them to engage in outdoor activities, practise yoga regularly, adapt positively to challenges, and always act with compassion and responsibility.
Impressed by the commitment of the Scouts and Guides, Parnaik exhorted them to become active volunteers for noble causes.
He called upon them to serve as ambassadors of hygiene and sanitation, health, cleanliness, environmental protection, and anti-drug campaigns across the State.
