Parishad, Devdutt Joshi said, The youth of India is no longer just
standing in the queue for jobs but is becoming the one who gives new direction
and employment to the society. Our youth have immense energy and world-class
ideas; all that is needed is to provide them the right platform and guidance.
Vidyarthi Parishad has always been working to transform student power into
national power. We believe that the objective of startups emerging from
platforms like Savishkaar should not be just to earn financial profit but their
main goal should be to find technological and accessible solutions to the
problems of the person standing at the last line of the society. This is nation
building in the true sense.
Addressing the concluding session, Ghanshyam Shahi,
Regional Organisation Minister, Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad, Eastern
Uttar Pradesh Region, said, Today, the youth of the country is showcasing
its immense potential in the field of innovation. Around 250 delegates from
across the country participated in this two-day confluence and we saw that even
students from small towns and rural backgrounds have very practical and transformative
startup ideas. This joint effort of Vidyarthi Parishad and Savishkar is a
ritual of taking these ideas from paper to reality. Our aim is that our
educational campuses should not just be centres for dispensing degrees but
should become vibrant ecosystems of innovation and entrepreneurship.
Summarizing the event in the concluding session, Nisarg
Rathod, National Convener, Savishkaar, said, The energetic interaction
that has taken place between student representatives, investors and industry
experts from across the country over these two days is unparalleled.
'Savishkaar Startup Sangam 2026' is not just an event but the beginning of an
ideological revolution. The fire we have seen within the youth to transform
from 'job seekers' to 'job creators' over these two days gives us complete
confidence that we are committed to taking these brilliant ideas forward and
providing them proper incubation. Every youth coming out of here will take
India's economy to new heights.
