JAIRMAPUR , May 6: Minister Sports &Youth Affairs Mama Natung along with legislator Laisam Simai inaugurated the first ever Arunachal Yuva Samanvay (AYS) organised by the Department of Youth Affairs at Setong Sena general ground here on Friday.
AYS is the first ever programme being organised in the state to foster and promote nationalism among the youths. It also aims for cultural exchange among the 26 tribes and other sub tribes of the state.
Addressing the gathering, Natung said that the AYS is basically a youth conclave where participants from across all districts are participating in the three days long programme.
Through various activities, the youths will exchange culture, customs and also build brotherhood.
He said it is a platform to bring prosperity, integrity and brotherhood among the youths from different tribes. There should not be differences among people on the basis or district and tribe, rather join together to create a greater Arunachal.
"The state government is always providing such platforms to create youth empowerment. Therefore, I appeal every single participant to make the best use of it," he said, assuring that his personal effort will be to ensure the AYS is a calendar event.
Natung appealed to the youths to refrain from drugs and join sports & games for healthy society. He also called on the youths to create awareness on the protection of environment, forest and wildlife.
Legislator Laisam Simai acknowledging the initiative of the Youth Affairs department for coming up with the idea, said that it will hugely benefit the youths of the state.
He said it is not only a festival but a perfect platform for the youths to share ideas, culture, customs and build bond among themselves.
Meanwhile, terming the conclave as confluence of cultural exchange, Secretary Sports and Youth Affairs, Anirudh Singh appealed to the participants to make an effort in building a united, progressive and proud Arunachal Pradesh.
Earlier on the day, former Miss Arunachal Roshni Dada addressed the gathering on empowering youths from her perspective.
The three days conclave will include folk music, folk dance, adventure sports, handicrafts making, Yoga sessions, motivational speech, painting and photography etc.
