IIMUN To Host Youth Conference

IIMUN is a youth-led platform that operates across 275 cities in India and more than 40 countries. The RSS said the organisation was founded in 2011 and is run by young people aged 15 to 24, ANI reported.

Through its various programmes, the platform claims to have engaged over 7.5 crore young people and connected with more than 1.5 lakh schools and colleges.

Gen Z In Focus After Recent Protests

The announcement comes at a time when the recent protests in Delhi continue to dominate political discourse, with the issue being raised from the streets to Parliament.

The Opposition, including the Congress, described the demonstrations as a "Gen Z movement", claiming that the youth-led agitation compelled the government to accept the resignation of former Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.

Following the protests in Delhi, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has also interacted directly with Gen Z through five Instagram posts, according to the report.

Bhagwat On Changing Values And Mother's Role

Earlier, Mohan Bhagwat had spoken about changing values in Indian society and culture, saying that adapting with time is an important aspect of motherhood.

He said change is a natural part of life and that people continue to learn through their experiences. While guidance helps individuals move forward with ease, Bhagwat said experience often becomes the greatest teacher, even though the lessons it offers can be difficult.

Bhagwat also said a mother's affection and emotional support are not limited to childhood. According to him, even when children grow up and disagree with their mothers, the bond remains unique and enduring, providing emotional support throughout every stage of life.
