PM Modi Calls on Youth to Lead ‘Viksit Bharat’ Vision, Warns Against Complacency
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, addressing the Viksit Bharat Young Leaders Dialog 2025 at Bharat Mandapam, urged India’s youth to take ownership of the nation’s development journey. Speaking on the occasion of National Youth Day, which commemorates the birth anniversary of Swami Vivekananda, PM Modi emphasized the critical role of young leaders in transforming India into a developed nation by 2047.
“I have faith that India’s Yuva Shakti will make India a developed nation… People who calculate data may think that it is impractical. I know that it is a huge target but not impossible,” said PM Modi, inspiring the audience with his unwavering belief in the potential of India’s youth.
The Prime Minister’s speech was a clarion call to action, urging citizens to shed the “chalta hai chalne do” attitude. “Any country has to achieve big targets to grow and prosper. Some people have a ‘chalta hai chalne do’ attitude and think it is unneeded to make changes. But people who have this kind of attitude are no better than dead corpses. The only thing that drives our lives is our goals. Today’s Bharat is driven by goals,” he asserted.
PM Modi also paid tribute to Swami Vivekananda, whose faith in the youth remains a guiding light for the nation.“swami Vivekananda had immense faith in the youth of the country. he used to say, ‘My faith lies in the new generation, the young generation will find solutions to all problems.’ Just as Swami Vivekananda had faith in you all, I have faith in him,” he said.
Highlighting India’s progress, PM Modi noted that the country has already achieved significant milestones across various sectors and is “well ahead of time.” However, he stressed that the vision of Viksit Bharat cannot be realized by the goverment alone. “Setting and achieving big goals is not just the work of any one government machinery,it is a must that every citizen of the country joins it… Lakhs of people have joined it. The ownership of the Viksit Bharat is not just mine but yours too,” he said.
The Prime Minister also shared a heartwarming anecdote from his interaction with young athletes. “A few months ago, I met a group of young athletes at my residence, and one of them stood up and said, ‘Modi ji, you might be the PM for the world, but for us, PM means Param Mitra (best friend).’ I have immense trust in you. It is this faith that drives the Viksit Bharat Young Leaders Dialogue. My belief is that with the strength of India’s youth, India will soon become a developed nation,” he recounted.
PM Modi’s speech was a powerful reminder of the collective duty required to achieve the enterprising goal of a developed India. “No power can stop India if our every decision, step, and policy is guided by the idea of Viksit Bharat,” he declared.
