What happened
The Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports has launched the next phase of the 'Nasha Mukt Yuva for Viksit Bharat' campaign through Mera Yuva Bharat (MY Bharat). District-level competitions begin on 13 July 2026, and the campaign is positioned as part of the broader vision of Viksit Bharat @2047 and a Nasha Mukt Bharat.
The campaign uses youth-led creative expression to spread awareness against substance abuse. The Ministry has organised the initiative as a structured, three-tier competition with district, state, and national stages.
UPSC may ask how creative, decentralised campaigns can supplement enforcement-led anti-drug strategies, and what administrative design is needed for inclusive youth participation across districts, states, and languages.
