YUVA PRATIBHA – Singing Talent Hunt (India)

Deadline: 25-Jun-23

MyGov in collaboration with the Ministry of Culture is organizing a YUVA PRATIBHA – Singing Talent Hunt to promote Indian music at the grassroot level on a national scale by identifying and recognizing the new and young talent in various singing genres.

Indian music is one of the oldest, unspoken musical traditions in the world. India is a geographically diverse country, and this diversity is reflected in its culture. Each state in this country has its own style of music that serves as the foundation for its cultural identity, like Rajasthan’s famous folk song ‘Padharo Mhare Des’, Maharashtra’s Povada, Karnataka’s Ballads, which is the music of expressing heroism and patriotism, and so on.
