Online Registrations for Yuva Sangam Phase VII Commence from 4 August 2026

The Ministry of Education has opened online registrations (04‑18 August 2026) for Yuva Sangam Phase VII, a youth exchange programme under Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat. It targets youth aged 18‑30, including higher‑education students, NSS/NYKS volunteers and young professionals, who can register at https://ebsb.aicte-india.org. Twenty higher‑education institutions (IITs, IIMs, Central Universities, NITs) have been designated as nodal institutions to host five‑to‑seven‑day cultural and educational tours for paired State/UT pairs. The programme is built on five thematic pillars – tourism, tradition & culture, development & governance, people‑to‑people contact, and technology & innovation – and aligns with the vision of NEP 2020 to foster national unity and mutual understanding.
