Tata Jagriti Yatra is an annual train journey that that takes hundreds of India’s highly motivated youth (with some participation of international students) between the ages of 20-25 and experienced professionals with age above 25, on a eighteen day national odyssey, introducing them to unsung heroes of India. The aim is to awaken the spirit of entrepreneurship – both social and economic – within India’s youth by exposing them to individuals and institutions that are developing unique solutions to India’s challenges. Through this national event we have begun to inspire the youth of India to lead and develop institutions both nationally and within their communities.

Vision

The vision of Tata Jagriti Yatra is to inspire young Indians living in the middle of the Indian demographic diamond (Rs 40-Rs 120 per day) to lead development by taking to enterprise.

  1. Excellent idea of starting youth yatra by Tatas. One more feather in their cap. Tatas deserves KUDOS for the enormous job of developing youth and its enterprise initiatives.

    I wish TATAS and our YOUTH all success in their endeavours.

    ALL THE BEST!

  2. May all the god,s of India bless the house of TATA,s to continue doing what is right for INDIA and its people.They have shown so many a time’s over so many a years that its not how much you have ,own or possess that count,s but what you do with it that will benifit our country and its people.
