included in this festival. The winners of state level competitions can
represent Kerala state in the National Youth Festival to be conducted from 12th

Keralotsavam is now a widely
accepted festival for the Youth of Kerala. As a result every youth in this
State is getting a chance to project her / him to the fore-front in every
sphere of life. Kerala created a model for the nation by initiating a colourful
youth festival “Keralothsavam”, which is conducted with gaiety and fanfare
every year. So Keralothsavam
is considered as the National Youth Festival of Kerala. It was started in the year 1988 for the first
time under the auspices of Kerala State Youth Welfare Board (KSYWB).
The Youth represent
the hope and future of a country. They have a vital role to play with
regard for fostering and strengthening of social consciousness against all
social evils and lead the country to unity and prosperity. So the youth
community should be strengthened physically, mentally, socially and culturally"
