|----------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------|
|        1 | Total participations across Volunteering Opportunities (VO)           | 22,76,829                   |
|        2 | Number of Youth Engaged through Experiential Learning Programs (ELP)  | 97,590                      |
|        3 | Total Number of participations in Quizzes hosted on MY Bharat portal  | 39,33,802                   |
|        4 | Total Number of participations in Essay competitions hosted on portal | 70,973                      |

(c)  MY  Bharat  functions  as  a  youth  engagement  and  participation platform facilitating youth registration, profile creation, and participation in activities such as Experiential Learning Programmes,  volunteering  opportunities,  and  events  hosted  by partner  Ministries,  organisations,  and  institutions.  The  platform's reporting  framework  currently  captures  indicators  such  as  youth registrations, activity listings, partner onboarding, and participation levels to assess growth in youth participation and digital engagement.  At  present,  MY  Bharat is not a dedicated skill development,  employment,  or  placement  portal,  and  no  separate structured  impact  indicators  measuring  skilling  and  employability outcomes have been envisioned beyond participation and engagement metrics.
