Sri Lanka, Aug. 12 -- President Anura Kumara Dissanayake emphasized the urgent need to foster a new generation of responsible young leaders, rejecting the concept of political dynasties or youth leaders who merely focus on protecting family power.

Speaking at the opening ceremony of the National Youth Conference held at the Sugathadasa Stadium in Colombo today (12), President Dissanayake noted that the youth who step into leadership must be genuine, capable, and ethical - individuals ready to take over the country's future after the current leadership.

The Head of State further stressed the importance of nurturing a new youth generation that is adaptable, seeks knowledge, and can take charge of the country's future.
