Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann Calls on Youth to Lead State’s Socio-Economic Growth

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann has emphasized the crucial role of youth in the state’s socio-economic development, urging them to actively engage and be part of the growth process. Speaking at the Inter-Zonal Youth Festival at Punjab Agricultural University (PAU), he expressed pride in witnessing the enthusiasm of students and youth, noting their inherent potential to excel in any field.

Mann stated that the youth are like planes with the potential to soar high, and his government is committed to providing them the necessary resources and opportunities to achieve their goals. Drawing inspiration from his own experiences, he recalled how the youth festivals had played an integral role in shaping his personality, both as an artist and later as a politician. “These festivals not only helped me excel as an artist but also instilled in me the mindset of winning,” he said. Mann encouraged the youth to use such platforms for their holistic development, highlighting that true success lies not in victory but in consistent hard work and humility.

The Chief Minister shared personal anecdotes, revealing that his father, a science teacher, had wanted him to focus on academics. However, it was his passion for art and culture that led him to great success. He urged the youth to value relationships with teachers, mentors, and friends who support them in their journey.

Mann stressed that the state’s youth are gifted with immense talent and energy, which can act as a catalyst for positive change in society. With this in mind, he called upon the youth to actively support the state government’s initiatives, contributing to Punjab’s emergence as a leader in socio-economic development. He also reassured the youth that his government is committed to their welfare, with adequate resources allocated for their holistic development.

Pointing out the past neglect of youth welfare by previous administrations, Mann emphasized that his government prioritizes the comprehensive growth of youth, attending events like these without fail. He stressed that no effort would be spared to ensure their well-being, marking a clear departure from the previous regime’s lack of engagement with youth-focused initiatives.

In a unique gesture, Bhagwant Singh Mann delighted the audience by reciting a poem “Maghda Rahin Ve Surja Kammian De Vehre” by renowned Punjabi poet Sant Ram Udaasi, a piece close to his heart. The performance captivated the crowd, as the Chief Minister demonstrated his deep connection to his college roots, impressing students, teachers, and attendees alike.

Mann’s heartfelt message to the youth of Punjab is clear: with hard work, humility, and the right guidance, the sky is the limit. His government is dedicated to ensuring the youth have all the tools they need to succeed, and he is committed to being their active partner in this journey.
