## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF STATE (INDEPENDENT CHARGE) FOR YOUTH AFFAIRS & SPORTS

(SHRI SARBANANDA SONOWAL)

- (a) No  Madam.  At  present,  Government  has  no  proposal  under consideration to restructure the programmes of Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan  (NYKS).  NYKS  undertakes  programmes  to  develop  the personality  and  leadership  qualities  of  the  youth  and  to  engage them  in  nation-building activities. The  areas  of  focus  of the programmes  of  NYKs  include  literacy  and  education,  health  and

family welfare, sanitation and cleanliness, environment conservation,  awareness  on  social  issues,  women  empowerment, rural development, skill development and self-employment, entrepreneurship development, civic education, disaster relief and rehabilitation, etc. Broadly,  NYKS  through  its  programmes  has  been  able  to achieve  the  objectives.  The  youth  associated  with  NYKS  are  not only  socially  aware  and  motivated  but  are  also  inclined  toward social development work through voluntary efforts.

(b) At present, there is a Kendra of Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan (NYKS) functioning in 623 districts of the country. The State  wise  and  location  wise  details  of  these  Kendras  is  at Annexure-I.
