(Hemant bhardwaj) ELECTED PRESIDENT GREATER KAILASH ASSEMBLY at Indian Youth Congress

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 and arguing against right-wing parties. Priya Ranjan Dasmunsi was the first elected governor of the Indian Youth Congress; he later became Minister of Information and Broadcasting and Parliamentary affairs in the Indian cabinet. Narayan Dutt Tiwari was the first President.

During the 1970s, under the leadership of Sanjay Gandhi, the Youth Congress undertook activities such as tree plantation, family planning, and fought against domestic violence and dowry deaths. After the death of Sanjay Gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi took over in charge of the Youth Congress. After he became prime minister in 1984, Rajiv Gandhi reduced the voting age to 18. Rahul Gandhi was appointed a general secretary of the All India Congress Committee on 24 September 2007 and was given charge of the Indian Youth Congress[1] along with the National Students Union of India.[2]

The Indian Youth Congress has its headquarters in New Delhi, and is presently headed by Rajiv Satav. There are 29 office bearers at the national level, followed by the state, district and block level. The Indian Youth Congress has a unit in all 18900 blocks of the country.

Very little is left of the original temple, built almost 3000 years ago, due to invasion and razing by Mughals.[citation needed]. It is also said that Pandavas and Kauravas came here to pray to the almighty. However, a very small portion of the original structure built in the year 1734 can be seen on the topmost point of the hill. Later in the mid 19th century, Raja Kedarnath, the treasurer of Emperor Akbar II made certain changes and additions to the temple.

Kalkaji Mandir is amongst the oldest and the most reverend ancient temples of India. It is also called 'Jayanti Peetha' or 'Manokamna Siddha Peetha'. Manokamna literally means desire, siddha means fulfillment, Peetha means shrine. So, it is the holy shrine where one gets the blessings of Maan Kalika Devi(Goddess Shri Kalika Devi) for the fulfillment of one's desires.
Thousands of devotees come here everyday from from far and wide to get the blessings of Goddess Maan Kalika Devi. The Number of devotees rises to lakhs during the Navratras which has a special significance for her devotees.
