Kolkata, Sep 28 (UNI) Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national president Nitin Nabin on Monday urged Generation Z to distinguish between social media reels and reality and rely on accurate information, while calling upon young people to play a greater role in preserving India's culture and heritage.
Addressing the BJP's ‘Yuva Bharat Sanglaap’, an award ceremony held at Space Circle Club near Chinar Park, Nabin expressed concern over the younger generation becoming increasingly absorbed in mobile phones and advised them to look beyond their screens and participate in India's culture, heritage, sports and music.
