MY Bharat Youth Begin Leadership Journey to Siachen
In a groundbreaking initiative, a select group of young Indians will transition from participating in a digital quiz to experiencing life at Siachen, the world’s highest battlefield. This unique exposure visit, organized by the Department of Youth Affairs under the Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports, aims to instill values of leadership, resilience, and nation-building among the youth. The initiative is part of the MY Bharat program, which has already engaged over 1.8 crore young individuals across the country.
MY Bharat Initiative and National Flag Quiz
Launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the MY Bharat initiative has successfully connected millions of young people to the Indian ethos of Seva-Bhaav (spirit of service) and Kartavya Bodh (sense of duty). As part of the Independence Day celebrations, the Department of Youth Affairs organized the National Flag Quiz on the MY Bharat platform from August 1 to August 15, 2025. This event saw enthusiastic participation from over 1.1 lakh youth nationwide, showcasing their knowledge and commitment to the nation.
The winners of this quiz will embark on an extraordinary journey to the Siachen Base Camp from September 28 to September 30, 2025. This visit will provide them with a rare opportunity to interact with members of the Indian Armed Forces, gaining insights into their lives and challenges.
Experiencing Life at Siachen
During their time at Army establishments, the youth participants will receive briefings from the Indian Army about the operational, geographical, and ecological challenges faced in Siachen. They will visit training areas, pay homage at the war memorial, and engage with soldiers who protect India’s borders under extreme conditions. This immersive experience will also include exposure to the rich cultural heritage of Leh and an introduction to local entrepreneurship and business activities.
Each participant will carry a handwritten letter addressed to the Army, articulating their vision for a developed India and recognizing the vital role of the Armed Forces in ensuring national security and development.
Fostering National Pride and Responsibility
The Department of Youth Affairs emphasizes that this initiative transcends a mere educational trip. It aims to deepen the youth’s understanding of India’s border regions, cultivate respect for the Armed Forces, and instill a sense of pride, responsibility, and patriotism. By connecting the journey from a quiz to Siachen, MY Bharat is shaping a generation of young citizens dedicated to national service and prepared to lead India towards a promising future.
