Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate the first edition of the SOUL Leadership Conclave at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi on Friday. Bhutanese Prime Minister Tshering Tobgay will also participate in the event.
PM Modi shared his enthusiasm in a post X, saying, “I will be inaugurating the SOUL Leadership Conclave at 10:30 a.m. on February 21, at Bharat Mandapam. It is a matter of immense joy that my friend, Bhutan PM Tshering Tobgay will be gracing the conclave with his presence. @tsheringtobgay.”
Tshering Tobgay arrived in New Delhi on Thursday, where he was welcomed by Union Minister of State for External Affairs, Pabitra Margherita. His participation in the event reflects the close diplomatic ties between India and Bhutan.
The two-day SOUL Leadership Conclave, scheduled from February 21 to 22, aims to bring together leaders from diverse fields, including politics, sports, arts, media, spirituality, public policy, business, and the social sector. The event seeks to inspire young minds by showcasing the leadership journeys of renowned figures, highlighting both their successes and challenges.
According to the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO), the conclave will foster an environment of collaboration, mentorship, and thought leadership.
The School of Ultimate Leadership (SOUL), based in Gujarat, is dedicated to developing future leaders committed to serving the public good. Its mission is to diversify India’s political leadership by offering formal training and opportunities to individuals based on merit, dedication, and passion for public service, rather than political lineage.
The conclave aims to equip next-generation leaders with the insights and skills needed to navigate the complexities of modern leadership.
Bhutan PM Tshering Tobgay will deliver the keynote address as the Guest of Honour. Other prominent speakers include Union Ministers Bhupender Yadav and Ashwini Vaishnaw, former Chief Justice of India D.Y. Chandrachud, former RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das, former Puducherry Lieutenant Governor Kiran Bedi, industrialist Sunil Bharti Mittal, and reigning world chess champion Gukesh Dommaraju.
