The Indian government has launched an innovative service to connect with the youth, making engagement smarter and simpler. The Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports has integrated the MY Bharat portal directly with a WhatsApp chatbot. Now, any young person in the country can open up new avenues for service, learning, and leadership by simply sending a ‘Hi.’ This initiative connects young people with government schemes and volunteer opportunities. Users can connect with the service by sending a ‘Hi’ on WhatsApp to 7289001515, and see how their phone becomes the easiest way to connect with government services.
This digital tool offers several benefits:
* Volunteer opportunities to connect with the nation through social service
* CV creation to present oneself in a smart way
* Contact mentors to get guidance from experts
* Join or create organizations, hone leadership skills
* Report problems, get solutions, directly, easily, and instantly
* MY Bharat Helpdesk is available to assist at all times
Crucially, everything is now available on your WhatsApp in simple language.
Upcoming updates will introduce even more features:
* Direct registration in the app
* Photo-video uploads for events
* Delivery of certificates and documents
* Reminders, follow-ups, and task tracking
* Information on government schemes directly on mobile
This is a true companion for the youth of Digital India, empowering them on the path of leadership, career, and social service.
