Indian Youth Congress: Youth wing of the Indian National Congress
The Indian Youth Congress is the youth wing of the Indian National Congress party. The Indian Youth Congress was a department of the Indian National Congress from the period just after the Partition of India in 1947 until the late 1960s. While prime minister, Indira Gandhi gave the Youth Congress a new dimension by establishing it as a frontal organisation of the Congress Party, with the objective of doing social work. Priya Ranjan Dasmunsi was the first president of the Indian Youth Congress who later became Minister of Broadcasting and Parliamentary affairs in the Indian cabinet; Narayan Dutt Tiwari was the first President. Jitin Prasada was also the president of the Indian youth congress.
