he Young Orators' Club (YOCS) is a long-running, member-driven forum in Hyderabad dedicated to public speaking, critical thinking, discussion and intellectual exchange. It was founded in 1969.

Its motto is “Cogitas Veritas” — “Think Truthfully.” The club describes itself as a community built around thinkers, knowledge, oratory and experience, encouraging participants to examine subjects from different perspectives rather than simply speaking for the sake of speaking.
