It was emphasised that NYKS, besides its field officials, will rope in all the grassroots level youth belonging to the Youth Clubs or otherwise and all other stakeholders to disseminate information about this transformational scheme and amplify the message among a large number of people particularly among the youth between the age group of 17.5 years to 21 years i.e. potential applicants.
To achieve this goal of reaching out to a maximum number of citizens and as a part of the strategy, extensive use will be made of personal and peer contact, bulk messaging through Telephone/Whatsapp and usage of social media platforms, Door to Door contact and by using the platforms of ongoing programmes of NYKS.
The grassroots machinery of NYKS has been asked to mobilize maximum youth volunteers to facilitate this outreach programme.
