A Vision for Cultural Unity

The concept of fostering a sustained and structured cultural connection between people from diverse regions was first conceptualized by Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi during the Rashtriya Ekta Divas held on 31st October 2015, in honor of the birth anniversary of the great Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. To realize this vision, the Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat (EBSB) initiative was officially launched on 31st October 2016.

Inspired by the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020

Yuva Sangam, operating under the umbrella of EBSB, takes inspiration from the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. The program’s core focus is on experiential learning and the firsthand acquisition of knowledge about India’s rich diversity. It is an ongoing cultural exchange with the celebration of diversity at its core. Participants have the unique opportunity to gain an immersive experience in various aspects of life, explore natural landscapes, learn about development milestones, and engage in meaningful youth interactions in the host state.
