Abhyas, the Internship Cell Of Hindu College organised the Hindu Youth Summit’s conference on February 7, 2014 in the Delhi University conference hall as the final event of the three day summit which also comprised a marathon the day before.

The summit started with Arnab Goswami’s speech on ‘Who has created the present day India?’ in which he talked about his own story of finding his voice as a journalist, the real journalism and he addressed the crowd as the generation which will bring the change in the country. His speech was followed by General Bakshi, who gave the young participants an insight to the Indian army, including the wars and the current situation of the same. The intense atmosphere was lightened by the next speaker, Salim Phulekar. He focused his discussion on the inner empowerment of the mind and body. “Empowerment is focus and relaxation at the same time.” He said continuing to talk about how one can balance the inner peace and outer dynamism.
The conference then moved forward to the issue of acid attacks and censorship of internet, by Alok Dixit.

The last speaker of the event, Rajyavardhan Singh, shared his journey of being a successful sportsperson from an army officer. While taking the questions from the audience, he advised the students to just believe in their dreams and have a purpose in their lives.
