The Viksit Bharat Young Leaders Dialogue aims to break the 25-year-old tradition of conventionally holding the National Youth Festival. The dialogue is held as part of the prime minister's efforts to bring one lakh youths with no political links into politics. The programme is being held on National Youth Day, which marks the birth anniversary of Swami Vivekananda.

PM Modi paid tributes to spiritual leader and social reformer Swami Vivekananda on his birth anniversary and said he is an eternal inspiration for the youth. "An eternal inspiration for youth, he continues to ignite passion and purpose in young minds. We are committed to fulfilling his vision of a strong and developed India," Modi said on X.
