Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan (NYKS) has an objective to develop the personality and leadership qualities of the youth and to engage them in nation-building activities.
Through Nehru Yuva Kendras (NYKs) it has its presence in 623 Districts.
This article will tell you all about the Origin, Objectives, Programs, and schemes of Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan (NYKS).
Origin Of Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan :
In the year 1972, Nehru Yuva Kendras were established along to provide rural youth avenues to take part in the process of nation-building as well as provide opportunities for the development of their personality and skills.
Under the Government of India, the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports NYKS was set up as an autonomous organization to oversee the working of these Kendras in the year 1987-88.
NYKS is one of its kind in the world and also it is the largest grassroots level youth organization. It funnels the power of youth on the principles of voluntarism, self-help, and community participation.
Head Office Of NYKS: New Delhi
The creation of youth clubs is to provide community support through developmental initiatives involving activities with a particular focus on youth empowerment is their basic objective.
Based on local needs and requirements by mobilizing resources from various government departments and other agencies, which include both national, state level, and multilateral institutions, programs and activities of youth clubs are implemented.
Objectives (NYKS):
Two-fold objectives of Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan:-
- To get involved in the rural youth in nation-building activities.
- To develop such skills and values in them with which they become responsible and productive citizens of a modern, secular, and technological nation.
With a variety of youth programs of the Ministry of Youth Affairs and certain special programs in coordination and cooperation of other ministries, NYKS has been working on various fronts of youth development.
Developing values of good citizenship, thinking, and behaving in secular ways, skill development, and helping youth to adopt productive and organized behavior is the main focus of NYKS.
Vision Of Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan (NYKS):
Focusing on developing long-term strategies for good citizenship and youth leadership at the grass-root level is the vision of the organization.
Participation in sports, cultural and local development activities are encouraged by youth clubs.
In the course of the formation and sustenance of youth clubs, youth leadership is developed. This leadership becomes highly useful in developing:-
- Networks of volunteers.
- Opportunities for participation in fundamental democratic practices of polity and development; and,
- Instruments of empowerment of youth like skill-generation, awareness creation about health, life skills, and self-employment.
Keeping in mind the fact that almost 3/4th of the Indian population is rural, the development of the nation as a whole depends on their progress and development.
Apart from the demographic dividend that the country has enjoyed because of the larger segment of the youth population, makes it almost mandatory for the largest youth organization like NYKS to take up more and more of such programs as will promise empowerment of youth.
