MY Bharat invites Youth to enroll as Civil Defence Volunteers.
Chandigarh, India, May 13, 2025 — MY Bharat, an initiative led by the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, Government of India, vigorously mobilizes youth nationwide to join as MY Bharat Civil Defence Volunteers. This comprehensive nationwide campaign aims to empower youth to step into significant roles contributing to the nation’s welfare, especially during critical emergencies and crises.
Volunteers will receive rigorous training to become essential to a well-prepared, responsive, and resilient force by participating in this program. These trained volunteers will complement civil administration efforts during various challenges, including natural disasters like floods and earthquakes, accidents, public health emergencies, and other unpredictable situations. Through this initiative, the Ministry aspires to create a network of dedicated young individuals ready to support their communities and safeguard the nation in times of need.
In light of current events and emerging security concerns, there is an urgent and increasing need to establish a strong community-based response mechanism. Civil Defence Volunteers play a crucial role in this effort by assisting local authorities with various services. These services include conducting rescue and evacuation operations, providing first aid and emergency care, managing traffic, controlling crowds, ensuring public safety, and supporting disaster response and rehabilitation initiatives. The significance of a prepared and trained civilian force is more critical than ever, and MY Bharat is dedicated to contributing to this national mission.
MY Bharat is calling on its dynamic network of youth volunteers and all other enthusiastic citizens to step forward and register as MY Bharat Civil Defence Volunteers. Both current MY Bharat volunteers and new individuals who wish to serve the nation in this role are encouraged to join. This initiative fosters a strong sense of civic responsibility and discipline among youth, equipping them with practical life-saving skills and training to respond effectively in critical situations.
The registration process is user-friendly and can be easily accessed through the official MY Bharat portal: https://mybharat.gov.in. This announcement serves as a call to action, inviting Youth/Public to engage proactively and rally support from all interested individuals and groups for this significant national initiative. Your participation can make a meaningful impact, so come together to drive this movement forward.
