Brisbane, set to host the 2032 Olympic Games, is gearing up for the “Run for Viksit Bharat 2025”, a global event celebrating India’s vision for a developed and self-reliant future.
The event is being organised by the Consulate General of India in Brisbane and is part of a worldwide initiative that includes 125 cities such as London, Paris, New York, and Moscow.
The run, led by India’s Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports in collaboration with Indian missions abroad, emphasises the Swadeshi spirit, community service, environmental sustainability, youth engagement, and diaspora empowerment.
Participants will unite under the theme “Run to Serve the Nation”, highlighting a shared commitment to India’s growth and global contributions.
Central to the initiative is Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of “Viksit Bharat by 2047”, aiming for India to become a fully developed nation by the centenary of its independence.
The Indian diaspora in Brisbane is eager to support this vision, using the run to strengthen cultural ties, foster collaboration, and showcase its enduring connection to India’s future.
As Brisbane prepares to welcome the world for the 2032 Olympics, the event underscores growing ties between India and Australia and the key role of the diaspora in shaping shared global futures.
The event is open to the Indian community, local Australians, students, professionals, and families, offering a celebration that transcends borders and generations.
