ABOUT NATIONAL YOUTH DAY
“Arise, awake and don’t stop until the goal is reached.”
-Swami Vivekananda
January 12 marks the birthday of Swami Vivekananda, who was a true luminary, credited with enlightening the western world about Hinduism. He was an ardent disciple of Sri Ramakrishna Paramahansa and a major force in the revival of Hinduism in India. He pushed for national integration in colonial India, and his famous speech remains as the one that he gave in Chicago in 1893.
To honour his many contributions to the country, the government of India, in the year 1984, declared his birthday as National Youth Day, and the day has been celebrated since. On this day, the country’s youth is expected to rise to the values, principles and beliefs that the great monk lived by. As the government rightly said in 1984, “the philosophy of Swamiji and the ideals for which he lived and worked could be a great source of inspiration for the Indian Youth Day.”
The main objective is to promote rational thinking among the youth, believed to be the future of the country. It expected of the youth to rise to the occasion, fight for the right and channel their inner energies, just like Swami Vivekananda would have.
This year, University Institute of Legal Studies, Panjab University, Chandigarh is celebrating the National Youth Day to honour the ideals of Swami Vivekananda and his contributions to India by organizing a virtual Poster Making Competition. You all are welcome to participate in the event and show your creativity by designing something new and original.
Best of Luck!!
