Ms. Akshara, a student of I BCom (Hons.) at SSSIHL, Anantapur campus, was selected to speak on “Democracy 2.0 – How AI and Social Media are Changing the Game” at the 13th Bharatiya Chhatra Sansad (Indian Student Parliament) held by MIT-WPU, Pune from January 10 -12, 2024. She was one of the five student speakers chosen to speak on the topic on Day 2 of the event, from over thousands of applicants from higher education institutions across India, through a stringent screening process.
Ms. Akshara was among the five student speakers to be felicitated by Shri U. T. Khader Fareed, the 23rd Speaker of the Karnataka Legislative Assembly.
The event, initiated by Rahul V. Karad in 2011, aims to sensitize students nationwide about actively participating in public life and politics. The Bharatiya Chhatra Sansad serves as a non-political platform to educate and empower the youth from over 25,000 colleges and 400 universities in India. The platform imparts lessons on democracy’s functioning and encourages students to assume leadership roles in political parties, social organizations, colleges, universities, and public institutions. The ultimate goal is to create an environment where educated and enthusiastic youth actively contribute to shaping a healthy and robust democratic system.
