PM Modi Urges Youths to Visit Border Villages to Understand India

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has urged youths to visit border villages to understand India instead of relying on virtual means. The Viksit Vibrant Village programme, which is part of the government's efforts to promote rural development, aims to give opportunities to youngsters to connect with India.

PM Modi urges youth to visit border villages for real India experience

Addressing participants of the Viksit Vibrant Village (VVV) programme in New Delhi on July 26, 2026, Prime Minister Narendra Modi emphasised the need for youth to physically visit border villages to grasp India’s socio-cultural fabric. The VVV programme, launched to promote development in remote border areas, encourages youngsters to live with local communities and experience grassroots realities. Modi highlighted that virtual engagement often fails to capture the essence of India’s diversity. The programme targets over 4,000 villages across 19 states and UTs along the border.
