He was addressing members of Nehru Yuva Kendra, NSS volunteers and different Yuva Mandals in Shimla today. The programme was organized by the Nehru Yuva Kendra, Shimla (HP).

Interacting with the youth, he called for inculcating the feeling of patriotism and national integration among the younger generation through Bharat Darshan programme.

According to an official release, he said youth should visit and see the other places and parts of their state and the country which will infuse a sense of belonging and patriotism among them and help them become responsible citizens.

He also mentioned the role of the "EK Bharat Shreshth Bharat" (EBSB) programme in breaking the barriers of language, culture and different cuisines of different states thus bringing youths of different states closer to each other.

The Minister said that it will work towards maintaining the unity and integrity of the nation and thus will enhance the glory of India.
