what is the importance of youth in democracy?
Answers
As India goes through its crucial General Elections 2014, quite a few unique developments are very evident. This year 150 million new voters have been added to the electoral list, and most of them are first time voters from the “youth circle” who are willing to act for change.
For the first time in India’s political history, this number has made the young voters a sizeable force to reckon with. The speeches of Rahul Gandhi (Congress), Narendra Modi (BJP) and Arvind Kejriwal (AAP) are being critically analysed by this group across the country. Be it promises of new jobs, setting up more post graduate institutes, or more scholarships and fellowships to study abroad, the political party manifestos are compared and scrutinized by young professionals and students holding debates and bringing candidates to answer questions related to how their party will implement these promises.
This large group of youth voters have made leaders answerable to them such that a political party’s victory will now depend on its accountability and not its ability to woo voters through illegal means.
