Terrorism and Indian youth..

Terrorism today is the greatest problem faced by the mankind.The unending chain of international rivalry,aggression to become a world power is killing millions of non-guilty lives. And after the series of attacks since 1993..it is a crystal clear fact that youth are being transformed into terrorists.Young minds who are in a tender age of learning ways to live a good and dignified life are seen with ak 47's. The hands that would be best seen with books and balls are full of hand grenades. What an unfortunate sight..!!
                                                               India is now very familiar to terror attacks. Rather...it is now included as a familiar phenomena like rains..Transport,business,hospitality and entertainment sector is being harmed constantly. So,isn't the Indian  youth listening to the million people who have lost their lives and something even precious than a life in these attacks? Are the youth being cowards? are they getting used to this scenario so much so that it makes them stone-hearted??
                                               India is believed to be the nation of the youth. Ask them to march on roads for publicity of a film or to break down shops on linguistic issues,they are ready. It clearly suggests that the young generation is not weak or incapable..its just wrongly focused. With international crisis hitting Indian culture and well-being..isn't it a waste of time fighting within the country for interstate and inter religious issues? They are important and need to be solved,i agree..but there is something called priority..its not the need of the hour.."Divide and rule" is once again coming into force guys..! and its now an obligatory expression for all of us to not fall prey to it.!!
                                        Parents,teachers and other educational institutions have a remarkable role in this mentality creation. They expose youth towards globalization,competition and educational thrifts...why isn't it so that no college compels its students to vote like they do for submissions? why don't parents urge their kids to opt for upsc exams ? why is that young politicians are only from the families having political backgrounds? why is politics yet a dirty game for us?
                                               Terrorism is merely not an activity,it is a mentality. Mentality of destruction and evil. It can be only fought with principles of patriotism and humanity. and who else then young minds can do it?
                                                  We blame the system,the government but never ever think of changing it. 26th jan and 15th august are just public holidays for us. I am not suggesting the youth to leave their high-profile jobs and education to join politics..but this very education and qualification can be brought into a productive use for the nation. Why not vote,pay taxes on time,use your free time working for some n.g.o.? This isn't a lot i agree..but it is atleast something larger than updating Facebook status's and sending cause invitations.!! its our share in well-being of the society..
                                  Enchanted mind can ignite fires..we have seen lot of fires burning away our dear ones,homes and places of work..Now its the time to make this fire burn bricks to re-build this distorted society and the world in general..!! make India a better place to live in..!!

  2. Hi Renuka,
    I am glad that you have an opinion about all of this. Something like Terrorism, is so multi-dimensional. I would encourage you to read more and more about it. It will help you refine your writing. I am sending you an article on your gmail i.d.
    Keep blogging...expressing yourself is good, but when its out there for everyone, we all need to do it responsibly,:)
