Jagriti Yatra is an ambitious train journey of discovery and transformation that takes hundreds of India's highly motivated youth, especially those who are from small towns and villages of India, on a 15 day, 8000 km national odyssey to meet the role models - social and business entrepreneurs - of the country. The vision of Jagriti is 'building India through enterprise'.
Yatra Saar is the synthesis report which captures the key learning from the role model visits, panel discussions, Biz Gyan Tree and interactions on the train. The report, drafted by the Yatris while on the train, is based on their observations.
If Jagriti Yatra has to grow into a strong movement we need to ensure a good participation from young people especially those from the small towns and villages of the country. To enable this we have launched the Campus Ambassador Program (CAP). Campus Ambassadors (CAs) are essentially students on campus who will be the representatives of Jagriti Yatra (JY) in their respective colleges. Write to us if you are interested.
