Vivekananda Kendra Kanyakumari, Telugu Prant, Nagole and Baghlingampally, jointly organized a One-Day Leadership Development Workshop under Phase II of the Youth Leadership Movement (Yuva Nethrutva Udhyamam) on 4 October 2026. The workshop witnessed the participation of 52 people, including 37 students, 4 young Karyakartas and 11 other Karyakartas.
The programme commenced with a prayer, welcome address and interactive games. A major highlight of the workshop was a group activity on “Vision of Bharat @ 2045.” The participants were organized into five groups, each exploring a different theme: Gated Community System; Agriculture, Water and Emotions; Sustainable Energy; Environmental Protection; and India with Better Living Conditions. Each group creatively depicted its vision using locally available resources and presented its ideas before the gathering.
The workshop also included a Geet led by Ms. Bhagyalakshmi and breathing and meditation sessions conducted by Aadaraneeya Mukeshji, providing opportunities for physical and mental well-being.
During the concluding session, Shri Rama Krishna ji, a young achiever from the software solutions sector, addressed the participants on the challenges faced by today's youth. He emphasized the importance of integrity, character and skill development, encouraging young people to become role models for their families and friends. He also highlighted the need to use social media as a tool for personal growth and development rather than distraction.
A Kendra Parichaya session introduced the participants to the vision and activities of Vivekananda Kendra. The concept of a proposed three-day residential leadership development workshop was also explained.
Shri Rama Raju Garu, Dilsukhnagar Sanchalak, along with the young achievers, distributed prizes and certificates to the participants.
The workshop concluded with the chanting of the Shanti Mantra, followed by lunch for all participants.
The programme provided a meaningful platform for young participants to develop leadership qualities, teamwork, creativity and a sense of responsibility towards Bharat's future, while encouraging them to cultivate strong character and contribute positively to society.
