Prime Minister Narendra Modi will address the G20 University Connect Finale programme at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi today. The programme will be attended by about three thousand students, faculty members, and Vice Chancellors of participating Universities. Students from across the country will also be joining the event Live.
The G20 Jan Bhagidari movement saw a record participation of more than five crore youth from different schools, higher education institutions and skill development institutes from across the country. The G20 University Connect initiative was undertaken with the aim of building an understanding of India’s G20 Presidency among India’s youth and enhancing their participation in the different G20 events. The programme engaged over one lakh students from universities across India. It was initially planned for 75 universities but eventually expanded its reach to 101 universities across India.
