New Delhi, 25th July: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will interact with participants of the Viksit Vibrant Village Programme 2026 through video conferencing on July 26 at 4:30 PM, the government announced on Saturday.
The programme, implemented through MY Bharat, has been designed to realise the Prime Minister’s vision of treating India’s border villages as the first villages of the nation and making them active partners in the journey towards Viksit Bharat.
The Viksit Vibrant Village Programme 2026 was conducted in two phases from June 4 to June 30, covering 74 Vibrant Border Villages across Ladakh, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand.
More than 400 youth participants, representing every State and Union Territory, were selected through a nationwide online quiz competition that attracted participation from over three lakh young people.
During the programme, participants stayed with local communities and took part in a range of activities, including Swachhta drives, awareness campaigns on government schemes, Yuva Sammelans, cultural exchange programmes, tree plantation drives, Mini Model Panchayat simulations, interactions with local artisans and visits to institutions of strategic importance.
According to the government, the initiative provided participants with first-hand exposure to the socio-economic conditions, cultural heritage and developmental aspirations of India’s frontier regions. It also sought to strengthen community participation, national integration and awareness of the strategic importance of border villages.
