The Viksit Bharat Ambassador - Yuva Connect Programme is a youth-centric initiative aligned with India's Viksit Bharat@2047 vision, designed to involve students and young individuals in nation-building by linking them with development objectives, policymakers, and community initiatives through activities such as dialogues, pledges, and service, thereby cultivating leadership and civic responsibility for a developed India by 2047. The philosophical view of development has undergone a significant shift which has been noticed all across the world. At this point in time, it is generally acknowledged that genuine and long-lasting social and economic advancement is not possible if a significant portion of the population is excluded from the process. It is possible that this is the reason why inclusive development, which is a plan for all-around development, appears to have widespread support among all of the stakeholders, including the government, non-governmental organizations, academics, and groups that are representatives of civil society. From this point of view, India is not an exception. India's vision, which is referred to as "Viksit Bharat 2047," is a comprehensive roadmap for the future of the country in terms of prosperity. It includes a variety of components, ranging from economic growth to inclusive development.
