Pransala (Gujarat): Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha addressed ‘Rashtra Katha Shivir’, organized by Swami Dharmabandhuji, Vedic Mission Trust, at Pransla, Gujarat, an official press release informed.
It said the national-level camp provides a platform for the overall personality development of youth.
Sharing his thoughts, the LG called upon the young and brilliant minds assembled at the ‘shivir’ from all parts of the country to dedicate themselves towards nation-building.
“Competence, Competitiveness, and Youth will be the three major factors in shaping the future of India in the Amrit Kaal,” said the LG.
The speed of progress largely depends upon the young generation. Youth with their creativity and innovation, are the most powerful resource for societal transformation, noted the LG.
“Education without practical experience has no purpose. We must imbibe the teachings of Mahatma Gandhi and make efforts for experiential learning. We need to create an environment in which our youth are encouraged for new discoveries, new inventions,” he said.
The LG underlined the importance of acquiring knowledge through experiences to bring change in the society.
“The process of learning should never end. Lifelong learning converts the vision into a mission. Our young population with courage and conviction to create, invent and innovate can achieve unprecedented success in every sector,” he added.
The LG asked the youth to light the lamp of knowledge in the society and to contribute in transforming India into a knowledge economy.
“Young generation must draw inspiration from the life of towering personalities of the country like Mahatma Gandhi, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and take India forward on the path of peace and prosperity,” he added.
“Youth should have the courage to explore the unexplored. Keep learning, innovating and be curious. Strive for excellence not for marks and do not look at any stage of life as success and perfection,” said the LG.
Competitiveness is another important factor that needs to be nurtured to enable youth to provide better solutions to basic problems and also contribute to corruption-free, transparent governance, he observed.
“Today, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, every section of society is being provided with equal opportunity and equal access to resources. Youth should be ready to become the active partner in India’s developmental journey,” added the LG.
Youth from J&K attending the camp also spoke on the changed scenario of Jammu & Kashmir, the press release said.
Swami Dharmabandhu, founder of Vedic Mission Trust; Lt General Randhir Kumar Mehta; JS Rajput, Educationist; trustees of Vedic Mission Trust, experts, and students in large numbers were present on the occasion.
