India's youth (15-29 years) make up 27.3% of the country's total population in 2021 and 25.9% in 2026, according to Census projections.

Young people have immense potential to become economic powerhouses, but .....

Social constructs like early marriages, adverse social norms, inadequate education, lack of employment opportunities, and structural poverty hinder their development

Post COVID-19 realities pushed them for abrupt discontinuation of education, limited access to health services, loss of existing job or job opportunities, household income loss, social and peer isolation, and migration stress.

India should strategically invest in young people's health, education, skill development, and employability space to enhance future development prospects. (The Country's 75% economic output comes from services and industry)
