Mysuru: The Youth Delegation is a programme conducted by the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, Government of India. The Ministry is sending a 200-Member Indian Youth Delegation to China from July 2 to July 9, 2019.
The main purpose of the visit is to promote mutual understanding of values and culture among the youth and to develop better relations between India and China. Representing all parts of the country, the Youth Delegation actually is a contingent of youth selected from across reputed Institutes in India who are involved in Social Service, especially through NSS. These representatives are sent for cultural exchange or youth festivals in some friendly country to represent India and also learn from the host country’s culture.
