The scheme of Youth Parliament was started on the recommendation of the Fourth All India Whips Conference. Its objectives are:
- to acquaint the younger generations with practices and procedures of Parliament;
- to imbibe the spirit of discipline and tolerance cultivating character in the minds of youth; and
- to inculcate in the student community the basic values of democracy and to enable them to acquire a proper perspective on the functioning of democratic institutions.
The ministry of parliamentary affairs provides necessary training and encouragement to the states in introducing the scheme.
