New Delhi, November 09, 2025: The three-day national dialogue “Vimarsh 2025”, organized by Youth United for Vision and Action (YUVA), concluded successfully at Kamala Nehru College, University of Delhi. The theme of the concluding session was “Constitutional Dilemmas: Challenges and Solutions in the Context of Cultural Marxism,” which brought together eminent intellectuals, academicians, and youth representatives from across the country.
The session began with an address by Dr. Pratibha Tripathi, who summarised the key discussions of the three-day conclave and described it as “a symbol of dialogue among young minds and the spirit of nation-building.”
Keynote Speaker Prafulla Ketkar (Editor, Organiser) in his address described Cultural Marxism as a serious threat to India’s constitutional framework. He asserted that this ideology “opposes the Constitution, the Nation, and Democracy alike,” and wherever Marxism spread, democracy was strangled. He refuted two major myths about the Indian Constitution — first, that it is merely a copy of the British model, and second, that it was framed to serve the interests of a particular community. Referring to Dr BR Ambedkar, he emphasised that “India was not unfamiliar with democracy; we were well acquainted with the system of assemblies and deliberation.” He also reminded that Dr. Ambedkar himself had identified Communist and Socialist parties as the strongest critics of the Constitution and stated that such ideologies are China-centric rather than India-centric, seeking to divide the nation along caste, language, community, and regional lines.
Chief Guest Prof. Manish R. Joshi (Secretary, University Grants Commission – UGC) highlighted the deep connection between the Indian Constitution and India’s civilizational values. Congratulating the nation on the 150th anniversary of “Vande Mataram”, he said the song is not merely a composition but a symbol of emotional unity with Mother India. He linked the three core principles of the Preamble — Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity — to India’s eternal traditions. He cited “Ekam Sat Vipra Bahudha Vadanti” as the essence of liberty and equality, and “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam” as the foundation of fraternity. Urging the youth to overcome any sense of inferiority, he said that we must recognize and embrace our great Indian heritage.
Special Guest Prof. (Dr.) Pavitra Bhardwaj (Principal, Kamala Nehru College) described hosting Vimarsh as “a celebration of ideas.” She stated that YUVA is not merely spreading knowledge but also nurturing youth as ‘agents of positive social transformation.’ She further noted that such events help in understanding the Constitution and dispelling misconceptions surrounding it. A major highlight of the session was the launch of YUVA’s new website, marking a step forward in the organization’s digital expansion and its mission of youth-led nation-building. The program concluded with a vote of thanks by Dr. Meenu Rani and the collective singing of the national song “Vande Mataram.”
YUVA (Youth United for Vision and Action) is a youth-led organization that promotes constructive dialogue, inspiring action, and nation-building rooted in India’s civilizational ethos. Its mission is to empower young minds as active agents of positive change in society.
