THE POWER OF INDIAN YOUTH
THE
POWER OF INDIAN YOUTH
ACCORDING TO LATEST CENSUS 70% OF INDIAN
POPULATION CONSISTS OF PEOPLE UNDER THE AGE OF 30 I.E. 70 CRORE PEOPLE ARE
YOUNG. WE ENJOY THE STATUS OF THE LARGEST DEMOCRACY, BUT IN PRACTICE IT IS MORE
BUREAUCRACY. SAM PITRODA, THE INVENTOR OF DIGITAL DIARY ONCE SAID THAT INDIAN
YOUTH HAS GOT IMMENSE POTENTIAL BUT THE MAIN DRAWBACK IS THAT THEY DO NOT TRY
TO BRING IT OUT. FOR INSTANCE IN MY COLLEGE THERE ARE TWO FRIENDS OF MINE WHO
ARE VERY GOOD SINGERS SO I SUGGESTED THEM TO GO TO GIVE AUDITION FOR INDIAN
IDOL, BUT THEY REPLIED ONLY THE SAME OLD ANSWER WHICH EVERY YOUTH REPLIES WHEN
THERE IS OPPORTUNITY TO BRING HIS POTENTIAL OUT THAT THERE WILL BE SO MANY
PEOPLE THERE AND WE WILL NOT GET CHANCE. THIS IS THE MOST TRUTHFUL FACT THAT
MOST OF PEOPLE KEEP THEIR WEAPONS DOWN BEFORE WAR IS STARTED.
WE ALWAYS COMPLAIN THAT WE ARE NOT GIVEN CHANCE OR OUR POLITICAL SYSTEM IS
WORST, WE COMPLAIN BECAUSE WE ARE AFRAID TO FACE COMPETITION. IF OUR POLITICAL
SYSTEM IS WORST THEN WHY WE 70 CRORE PEOPLE COME TOGETHER TO CHANGE IT AND MAKE
IT BETTER? BUT WHO WANTS TO DO, PEOPLE JUST WANTS TO BLAME, BUT DO NOT WANT TO
SOLVE THE PROBLEMS. ACCORDING TO THE SAYING “OPPORTUNITY COMES ONLY ONCE, GRAB
IT, BUT IN TODAY’S ERA IT IS NOT SO BECAUSE
TAKE THE EXAMPLE OF JAPAN, IT WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED DURING IIND WORLD WAR
AND DURING THAT PERIOD WE GOT INDEPENDENCE BUT TODAY JAPAN IS A VERY DEVELOPED
NATION IN TERMS OF TECHNOLOGY, ECONOMICALLY ETC, THE SECRET BEHIND THE JAPAN’S
SUCCESS IS BECAUSE ITS YOUTH WORKED SO HARD AND COMPLETELY CHANGED THE SYSTEM
AND RESULT IS IN FRONT OF WORLD. IT IS SINCE 59 YEARS WE GOT INDEPENDENCE, BUT
STILL NOW THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE IN INDIA WHO ARE NOT ABLE TO READ & WRITE.
EDUCATION IS THE PRIMARY REQUIREMENT FOR SUCCESS OF ANY NATION, THERE ARE SO
MANY VILLAGES WHERE THERE IS STILL NO ELECTRICITY AND WE ARE TALKING OF
GLOBALIZATION, LIBERALIZATION. FIRST OF ALL WE SHOULD CLEAR INTERNAL ISSUES.
DAILY IN NEWS WE HEAR OF TERRORIST ATTACK OR
CRIME NEWS AND MOST OF THE PEOPLE COMMITTING CRIME ARE YOUNG PEOPLE, IS THIS
THE WAY TO DEVELOP
THE NANO SCREEN, INTEL PENTIUM CHIPS, FLOATING AIRPORT OF HONG KONG AND MANY
MORE ARE THE CREATIONS OF INDIAN BRAINS BUT THEY ALL ARE UTILIZED BY OTHER
NATION BECAUSE THEY KNOW THE VALUE OF AN INDIAN BRAIN, BUT WE DO NOT VALUE
OURSELVES AND JUST SEEK THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO ABROAD. WHY CAN’T WE DEVELOP
TECHNOLOGY IN
WE ALWAYS THINK OF OTHERS, WHENEVER WE WANT TO DO SOMETHING WE THINK WHAT WILL PEOPLE SAY BUT WE DON’T THINK OF OURSELVES THAT IF I WILL DO THIS WHAT WILL I FEEL ABOUT MYSELF AND AT THIS POINT OUR DEVELOPMENT STOPS, SO NEVER THINK OF OTHERS, IF YOU ARE DOING SOMETHING FOR DEVELOPMENT JUST DO IT. PEOPLE MAY CRITICIZE YOU IN BEGINNING BUT DON’T GET DEMOTIVATED THEY WILL SURELY APPRAISE YOU.
ANY YOUTH PLAYS VITAL ROLE IN DEVELOPMENT OF
NATION. THE EFFECTIVE EXPLOITATION AND UTILIZATION OF POTENTIAL OF YOUTH WILL
ACCELERATE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS. WE ALWAYS COMPLAIN THAT THERE IS UNEMPLOYMENT
IN INDIA BUT THIS IS WRONG BECAUSE TODAY COMPANY REQUIRES PEOPLE WITH DYNAMIC
SKILLS AND MOST OF US DO NOT POSSESS IT SO WHO WILL GIVE THEM JOB. WE DO NOT
EXPAND OURSELVES. WE JUST STICK TO CERTAIN OLD FASHIONED DOGMAS; WE NEVER TRY
TO CHANGE OUR THINKING FROM NEGATIVE TO POSITIVE. THIS IS MY HUMBLE REQUEST TO
EVERY ONE, PLEASE NOW IT IS TIME TO PUT OUR HANDS TOGETHER AND WORK HARD FOR
THE DEVELOPMENT OF OUR NATION AS WELL AS FOR OURSELVES, LET US BRING OUR
IMMENSE POTENTIAL OUT AND ACCELERATE OUR NATION’S DEVELOPMENT PROCESS. LET US
TRY TO CHANGE THE SYSTEM AND MAKE
