Youth can bring about a revolution in the political scenario of India...

Renowned American educator & civil rights leader, Mary Mc Leod Bethune once said, “We have a powerful potential & we must have the courage to change the old ideas & practices, so that we may direct their power towards good ends.”

To begin with let’s go back to the pre-independence era of India. During the struggle for independence Indian youth imbued with the desire to attain freedom threw themselves in hundreds & thousands into the turbulence of revolutionary politics. Their active participation in the struggle against British rule gave this nation the fresh taste of freedom. Politicians like Suresh Kalmadi, A Raja have degraded our country morally & hollowed economically.

None would have thought that this taste of freedom would turn bitter with the passage of time on the account of our so-called politicians who are poisonous, contaminated &illiterate modern goons. Present day politicians or the leaders governing the country are obsessed with the monomania to loot the country & fill their own coffers, for whom ethics are the most traumatic joke. Power by hook or by crook is their only motto which leads them to conspiracy & forging a network of like-minded politicians & bureaucrats.

On the wake of such disastrous situation, our hope solely lies on some honest, dedicated & devoted youth who are ready to sacrifice themselves for the welfare of the nation. It’s high time when a gang of young, talented, easy-going, open minded, technologically advanced & enthusiastic people must step in.

Albert Einstein once said, “It’s the duty of every citizen according to his best capacities to give validity to his convictions in political affairs. So, a sense of positivity should generate in the well-educated young minds in India towards making politics as a first preference career option.

Thanks to a fresh batch of leaders like Arivnd Kejriwal, Sachin Pilot, Milind Deora & many others who stepped in & set forth examples moves to exemplary politics with their reformative moves to eradicate corruption, crimes &criminals.

I personally &rationally believe that the level of political awareness among Indian youth is much higher than adults. Their active participation in politics can lead this nation towards the path of peace, prosperity & development.
