In a landmark step toward digitally empowering the country’s youth, the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Digital India Corporation (DIC) to develop MY Bharat 2.0—a next-generation technology platform designed to enable, equip, and engage young Indians for the long term.
The MoU was signed in the presence of Dr. Mansukh Mandaviya, Union Minister for Youth Affairs & Sports and Labour & Employment, and Shri Ashwini Vaishnaw, Union Minister for Railways, Information & Broadcasting, and Electronics & Information Technology.

“Just like UPI and DigiLocker, MY Bharat 2.0 will be a transformative digital public platform. The goal is to scale with purpose, and impact with speed,” said Shri Ashwini Vaishnaw.
