Dear Delegates,

We live in a global village where events in one corner set off ripples that soon develop into a cascade which reverberates through the entire world. We live in an age where opinions translate into changes, ideas into actions and most importantly, least bothered people into responsible citizens.

At this juncture in time, it gives me immense pleasure to welcome you all to the inaugural edition of the Hindustan Young Leaders Conference hosted by KCG College of Technology. This event will give you a unique chance to discuss and debate real-time problems in an energy-charged environment.

HYLC will simulate six bodies, most of which are being simulated for the first time in the country. Each council will be run independently and the recommendations and projects proposed will be forwarded to relevant organizations. The agenda of the various councils has been framed keeping in mind the various conflicts and problems that challenge today's world and is designed to stimulate deep thinking in order to have a lasting impact.

We look forward to seeing you on the 16th of March 2012. Join hands with us and take one giant step into what will be our future.
