Mar 08: A 100-member youth delegation from five Central Asian countries is visiting India from 05-13 March 2024.
This is the second such youth delegation visit from the Central Asian countries to India. The first such delegation was hosted by India in November 2022. It is one of the initiatives emanating from the first India-Central Asia Summit held virtually in January 2022.
Youth leaders from different walks of life, achievers and influencers from Central Asia will have the opportunity to see for themselves India’s growth, its technological, industrial and research capabilities; get insights into India’s space program, as well as, enjoy India’s rich cultural heritage. Their program includes visits to premier research institutions, eminent educational institutions located in Delhi and Ahmedabad such as IIT and IIM, historical sites in Delhi, interaction with MY BHARAT volunteers, calls on Indian dignitaries and a visit to the Taj Mahal.
Historically, India and Central Asia have enjoyed continuous exchange of people, culture and ideas. This visit will expand the imagination of India among the youth of the Central Asian Countries and help them get a better appreciation of Indian society, growth, infrastructure, poverty reduction and the changes India has undergone in recent years. The impression carried back by the young Central Asian delegates from this visit will help them achieve a better understanding of contemporary India, and create a basis for sustained people-to-people interaction between India and the Central Asian Countries.
