Haryana Yuva Samvad 2026 हरियाणा युवा संवाद, 2026
A Landmark Event at the Haryana Vidhan Sabha
Haryana Yuva Samvad 2026 was a landmark event organised by the Haryana Vidhan Sabha in association with Rajdhani Yuva Sansad, held on January 16–17, 2026 at the Haryana Vidhan Sabha. The event brought together more than 60 meticulously selected students from across the country, chosen for their passion, potential, and commitment to public service and leadership.
It was a celebration of youthful energy and democratic spirit, fostering dialogue, vision, and a sense of purpose among the leaders of tomorrow. The vision behind the event was to spread the message that "संवाद ही हल है।" — Dialogue is the only solution.
A notable hallmark of this edition was gender inclusivity: nearly 50 percent of the participants were women, reflecting a progressive shift towards gender parity in public discourse — noted and appreciated by the Hon'ble Speaker himself.
Shri Harvinder Kalyan Ji
"In a democratic framework, the three organs of government — the Legislature, the Executive, and the Judiciary — function in close coordination, working tirelessly to ensure good governance, rule of law, and social stability. The Legislature, in particular, bears the responsibility of law-making, oversight, and representing the will of the people.
I am especially delighted to observe that nearly 50 percent of the participants in this initiative are women. This reflects a progressive and encouraging shift towards inclusivity and gender parity in public discourse. Empowering women and ensuring their active involvement is not merely a matter of representation, but a necessity for building a stronger and more resilient India.
Initiatives such as Haryana Yuva Samvad by Rajdhani Yuva Sansad play a vital role in connecting the youth with the legislative process."
— Shri Harvinder Kalyan Ji, Hon'ble Speaker, Haryana Vidhan Sabha
Distinguished Guests
The inaugural ceremony was graced by the esteemed presence of dignitaries, commencing with the traditional lamp-lighting ceremony symbolising knowledge, learning, and new beginnings.
Four Substantive Sessions Mirroring the Vidhan Sabha
Rigorous deliberation through direct legislative inquiry on the balance between industrial expansion, environmental protection, and natural resource utilisation. Key issues included SEIAA vacancies, CAG audit on solid waste, groundwater over-exploitation, and sustainable farming.
Ruling side emphasised Haryana's developmental trajectory through green industries and renewable energy. Opposition raised concerns on air/water pollution, groundwater depletion, and loss of agricultural land.
Critical discussion on positioning Haryana as a preferred industrial destination — strengthening manufacturing, improving ease of doing business, and promoting sector-specific growth in electronics, automobile, logistics, and renewable energy.
Explored structural and economic challenges: declining groundwater, soil degradation, excessive chemical fertiliser dependence. Emphasis on climate-resilient farming, crop diversification, and strengthening agricultural education.
The Hon'ble Chief Minister formally introduced the Bill. The ruling side expressed support while the opposition engaged in detailed examination — raising concerns about ambiguities, procedural gaps, and stakeholder implications. After comprehensive discussion, the Bill was passed with majority support.
Selected Suggestions by Participants
Environmental regulation complemented with targeted employment generation through a programme engaging Haryana youth in environmental monitoring, urban greening, and regulatory compliance support.
Resource Minimalism should be given legal form, placing a statutory obligation on industries to treat unnecessary wastage as a regulatory violation rather than a policy option.
Haryana should strengthen governance through real-time data systems and digital compliance platforms promoting predictable, objective, and non-discretionary implementation.
State-wide groundwater recharge strategy involving construction of underground water tunnels for systematic rainwater collection — similar to models in Japan and Saudi Arabia.
A legally binding Resource Budget for each district with annual limits on water use, pollution load, and land conversion. No proposal should receive approval until its ecological headroom is established.
Award Winners
The valedictory ceremony was graced by Shri Sushant Deep Rathi, Joint Secretary, Haryana Vidhan Sabha, along with the Co-Founders of Rajdhani Yuva Sansad.
