At just 15 years of age, Priya Sharma resonated with the slogan of unity between diverse cultures, declaring, “ABVP represents Indian culture. They instil in us the confidence to interact and learn, providing exposure that greatly contributes to our personality development.’
ABVP’s National General Secretary, Yajnavalkya Shukla, remarked, “I am impressed by the grand welcome extended by the residents of Delhi to this youth rally. The direct observation of ABVP’s National Convention’s Honour March on the streets has been a special attraction. This grand procession is a powerful demonstration of the nation’s unity and a stern response to divisive conspiracies.”
The convention’s opening ceremony saw student leaders, under Shukla’s leadership, sharing their insights on education, society, and youth-related issues.
As the ABVP National Convention continues, it remains a testament to the vibrant spirit of India’s youth and their commitment to fostering unity in diversity.
