YOUTHS OF TODAY



Youths of Today - Future of India ?

Education and higher education have become so costly these days that many students are finding it very difficult for their fees and to cope up with studies.

All these shows a total ignorance and neglect on the part of concerned officers of the education departments. They can’t understand the implications of their decisions to hike the fees.

Why can’t one study? Why can’t he choose freely what he wants to study?

Why there is a competition?

Why can’t be admission given on the brain power than the power of marks?

Youth of today are neglected by the country, where, they are going to live rest of their life, where, they have to find support for their living, where, they have to grow and nurture their own family and give birth to children, future of India.

Every child is longing for security, love, happiness and peace.

When you don’t get what you are looking for and also when you are deprived of what you have, one becomes direction less.

There is, lack of role models for our youths, as such it is difficult for younger generation to march forward towards creating a better world for themselves. Because of this today’s youths are not connected to the country directly.

Patriotism and love for the country can only come if there are patriotic values set for children to follow.

Today’s youth are wasting their energies instead of concentrating and working towards achieving their targets.

As elders talk ill about the country and the leaders. Youth are also developing negative attitude towards the present state of our country and the leaders.

Neither political leaders nor the so called upper society people are concerned about the youths of our country. This has led to a uni-directional journey for youth to earn more and more money.

This trend is dangerous to the society as youth will be adopting different easy ways to make money.

Possessing valuable items has become status symbol. Present day youth want to keep pace with higher and higher level of materialistic possessions.

Free market culture, undue influence of the media and mind blowing advertisements promotes this dangerous culture. Easy availability of credit cards and bank loans have made many bankrupt in the family.

People especially the youths have forgotten the value of Independences the cost paid by our Rastra Bhakts. We should blame ourselves for this miserable state of affair.

But despite all the above, I see a ray of hope in the eyes of youth and young generation.

Yes they will change the face of our society to a new modern socio spiritual culture. A culture which will finally lead to the spiritual awakening of all our citizens for creating an enlightened society.
