Competition Details

One of the rationales of democracy is that everybody gets a chance to be heard. All citizens have the right to express their opinions freely and thereby contribute to the taking of right decisions and passing of good laws that govern the country. To actively and meaningfully participate in the democratic functioning of our civic and political institutions, citizens are required to have certain competencies. It is, therefore, necessary that a suitable program be devised to train youth for their role as citizens in a democracy. Education should make students competent enough to consider public issues and form their opinion on them judiciously.

With the above objective and to develop a democratic ethos amongst the younger generation, the University Institute of Legal Studies is going to organize National Youth Parliament.

The Youth Parliament is a program in which group discussion, debate, and role-playing techniques can effectively be used. Education cannot be imparted merely by providing students with information. We must think not only in terms of developing competencies in students but also in terms of influencing their attitudes which are essential for running democracy in the country on the right lines. This is possible if we pay some attention to designing and organizing purposeful activities for students’ participation. The Youth Parliament is one such activity by which we can impart some real cum Practical education.

Youth parliaments across the globe, essentially provide platforms for young people to articulate, specific youth-related issues and concerns but most importantly, to share their perspectives on matters of national importance. In India, with increasing emphasis on the civic engagement of youth; the youth parliament provides a clear strategic push to enhance the participation of young people in matters of national interest including in politics and governance.

Youth Parliament intends to create a permanent forum on local and national levels where all young people can discuss and reflect on topics that concern them and address themes arising from the common lived experiences and share with others. It acts as a platform for them to voice their opinions which will help them analytically examine the society which we inhabit.
