Chandigarh, May 27: Punjab chief minister Captain Amarinder Singh on Friday exhorted the youth power to get ready to counter the military and economic challenges faced by India from two “hostile” neighbouring nations, particularly China.
Amarinder said India was being surrounded by China which had strong economic and military ambitions and posing a new threat to the country and its youth.
“There is no country around India which does not have Chinese presence. There is a need for India to be on guard 24X7. And, the youth are best equipped to do this,” he said at the HT Youth Forum 2017 in Chandigarh.
The Punjab chief minister was the chief guest at the sixth edition of the ‘Top30Under30’ event held by Hindustan Times to honour young prodigies from the northern region.
Thirty talented achievers under the age of 30, from across the region, selected from diverse fields on the basis of their talent, success and potential, were honoured.
