Will bring 1 lakh youth into politics, says Modi

Virtually addressing event at Ramkrishna Math in Sanand, PM says politics can't be left to those who believe in dynasty politics

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said efforts are being made to bring youth into politics because it cannot be left to those who only believe in dynasty politics and consider it as family property.

Virtually addressing an event organised by Ramkrishna Math at Lekhamba village near Sanand, the PM said the Young Leaders' Dialogue will be organised in Delhi on the birth anniversary of Swami Vivekananda to "make a new beginning" towards this aim.

In his address, PM Modi said spiritual leader Swami Vivekananda, the founder of Ramakrishna Math and Ramakrishna Mission, was of the opinion that participation of youths will be crucial for the development of the nation.
