Mysuru: Young Indians (Yi) Mysuru Chapter, an integral part of the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), will be organising Young Indians Parliament (YiP)-2025, a national-level initiative aimed at instilling civic consciousness, leadership capabilities and policy understanding among school students.

With the theme “Where Young Minds Shape the Nation — Debate | Decide | Drive,” YiP aims at providing a platform for students to engage in parliamentary simulations, participate in structured debates and gain first-hand experience in governance and public policy.

Through its three-tier format — City Round, Regional Round, and National Final — students are encouraged to develop public speaking, negotiation and policy analysis skills. The top-performing students from city-level will move on to regional rounds conducted across 8 cities and finalists will take part in the national parliamentary simulation.

In 2024, YiP witnessed participation from over 4,300 students across 720 schools, facilitated by eight Yi City Chapters. The initiative focuses on relevant and critical themes including Skill Development & AI Readiness, Environmental Sustainability, Education Reform, Youth Empowerment, Women & Child Safety, and Technology & Cyber Security.
