NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Monday said involvement of the youth in nation-building activities would be the key determinant of the country’s success and excellence.
Speaking at the Republic Day rally of the National Cadet Corps at the Garrison Parade Ground here, Dr. Singh said India was a young nation with more than a third of its population below the age of 20. “Very few countries in the world are bestowed with such youthful human resource.”
The spirit of the NCC needed to be replicated in many spheres of society to bring about constructive social changes.
“I am confident that your legacy of dedicated service will inspire more and more students to join the NCC for serving the nation and enriching their lives, character and career. I take heart from the fact that the number of cadets in schools and colleges has been steadily growing.”
