  4. Introduction : • Youth are the powerhouse of any nation. Any idea of national development is just myth without the active participation of youth. National development is like a relay race. The old generation passes on the baton to the waiting team. Youth are the confident and creative force in a society. They have passion and vision. But their bubbling enthusiasm has to be rightly channeled and utilized by presenting before them a convenient environment. Proper guidance and direction can bring them in the forefront of national development. • As per National Youth Policy, those in the age group of 18-35 years are considered to be youths and they constitute one-third of the total population. To provide this huge manpower with proper guidance and institutional support, the Government created in 1978 Ministry of Youth Development (subsequently renamed Ministry of Youth & Sports) and Department of Youth Development (DYD) in 1981.
