Answer 2

Politics has always been of least priority for youth. I feel there is a percentage of people(youth) who are very passionate about doing something good for the country or people. After seeing the current politicians they come to a strong opinion that, Once you become a politician you loose all the passion.

I being an youngster, will quote one of my experiences. Every time i see a patriotic film, I will start thinking about politics etc.... But the next day i forget everything and get back to my day to day work.

I strongly feel that there should be a compulsory subject on politics in all kinds of PG or UG courses, whether he is from science based or maths based... and media can highlight more about the young politicians and their achievements and generate interest in today's youth. I feel "lead India" campaign by Times Now was a great initiative.

Answer 3

Today's youth do not attach much importance to politics. They are busy in chalking out their life goals, studies, employment, business etc. This is because politics and politicians have proved that it is stinking beyond redemption, and politics means mudslinging and corruption. Politicians have not made any impact on the youth. The only very strong impression created by politicians to youth is , if you want to be a politician you must start from Rowdymanship, Hooliganism and other anti social activities which majority of the present youth dislike. They have better dreams. That's is the reason, politics have become a sort of hereditary occupation. You see present politicians breed their own children to be their successors.

Should we blame the bamboo alone simply because it is being used more as sticks rather than flutes or shelters? Today's youth are indifferent to politics largely because of the way it is interpreted and applied and because the materialistic world and free communication are encouraging them to achieve maximum with single-minded approach. The process has been aided by the liberal value system that tends to live more in the present tense.

Whether the outcome is good or bad, politics cannot be ignored, simply because it influences a large part of our day-to-day life. It is required that today's youth are equipped with a better awareness on various political processes so that they can interpret correctly, defend effectively and apply appropriately to live better life which would benefit the society as a whole. The motivation could be from a redefined educational system, social practices and encouragements.

There is better chance that the bamboo would be used more as flutes or shelter this way. And there is still better chance that the energy of youth will go beyond mere individual benefits and extend the understandings to influence the society and nation in a positive way.

Answer 6

I believe today's youth only see politics through the eyes of the electronic media. The electronic media ie TV and radio look for ratings. Big TV are financed by big business. Big business is usually very pro whoever is in office at the time. You cant really learn about what is going on from TV and radio. Radio is especially skewed with the huge number of right wing talking heads and very little on the left (Air America is the only one I know about). So often I hear todays youth speaking with the talking points of the neo-conservative movement. Try to engage them in real political conversation and you get nowhere. People need to read more.

Answer 7

The generalised feeling is that today's youth are least cared about politics. We are able to see the same in our mundane life as how the youth is reacting to politics . This is attributed by the way governments are being run in many countries. For many, politics is something unprofessionlistic, which has to cope with a lot of unscrupulous and unethical acts, where not many can react to cease it.

My personal opinion is, youth need not completely stay away from it. But atleast have a close watch on how a government is being run, to know the do's & don'ts.
They should'nt shred their responsibilites by restricting them only to voting.
Many countries lack "educated" politicians, who can really think on the both sides of cards, and can take rational decisions and be pragmatic.
Aggressive, learned youth, are the most sought after in many governments.

I hope that day is not far off.

Answer 8

I think todays youth doesn't relate themselves to politics. and even though the ppl who relate themselves to politics they have their own selfish motives behind it. and from years politicians has been recognized with their wrinkled skin and gray hair, even youth try to contribute something good to todays politics, old devils, harass them and pressurize them to walk on wrong path. And now a days political parties are made only to fight like cats and dogs, and delay all decisions. All issues are only discussed on parliament and never acted upon, even if any party think of doing something good, the other party has meddle their nose in between.
And the most worst part of India is its entire Law and judiciary system, it really requires revamping. when the terrorism is at rise, political parties instead of fighting among themselves must concentrate on these issues seriously. Justice is always delayed. and "Justice delayed is justice denied" some times feel that India is not democratic country, country's democracy is used for their selfish and ulterior motives.

Answer 9

Nowadays the youths avoiding the politics in fearing some kind of losses (socially, materially).

The older politicians are not giving way for the young and encouraging the youths in politics.

Lack of political awareness is prevailing.

This means the youths should not waste their time in politics better to concentrate on their career

Answer 10
