The Ministry of Parliamentary Affairs launched an upgraded version of the National Youth Parliament Scheme web portal, designated as NYPS 2.0, on September 11, 2024. Unlike the previous version that was limited to students of recognized institutions, the upgraded portal is open to all educational institutions, groups, and citizens across the country.
Since its launch through July 21, 2026, the portal has recorded substantial participation across three categories. Institutional participation involved 4,939 registrations with 1,611 events organized, resulting in 54,518 participating students. Group participation saw 732 registrations with 26 events organized, involving 982 citizens/students. Individual participation accounted for 48,291 participating citizens/students. The total combined participation across all categories reached 103,791 individuals.
The Ministry has also made details of 42 onboarded Consultative Committees for various Ministries available on the Consultative Committee Management System (CCMS) portal at https://oams.nic.in/ccms/index.aspx. To strengthen outreach of the NYPS web portal, the Ministry has written to all State Governments, Union Territory Administrations, Legislatures of States/UTs, and various educational boards including CBSE and CISCE. A publicity video tutorial is broadcast periodically on Sansad TV, and the CCMS portal has been continuously upgraded digitally as per stakeholder requirements.
