Student and Politics:A Complementary Relation

Youth and Politics:A Complementary Relation

We live in a democratic country which has struggle of debate as a intrinsic part of it and all the policy-makers are chosen by the majority of its population and India has youth as its major part of its population ,so we can imagine their role in the politics of the country. The close relation of youth and politics in India can be traced back from the times of freedom struggle and their commendable role on their part is appreciable.

 Now a days in contemporary era it is issue of debate that -'Should youth take part in politics or they should confine them with their academics only'? 

One supporting argument can be that if youth will not take part in politics then how can they be made aware of their political rights and it is always said that youth are the backbone of a country ,if they will not be part of politics  then we might not be able to save our country with weak backbone .Since study confined to 'classroom and books' will make good academician but not great leaders.

Another argument comes up that universities are running on the sacrosanct money  paid by tax-payers and they it should be used for the academic progress of the students not in their issue less politics .

Concerning both the argument and leaning to the first argument in my opinion it  will be good if youth take part in politics as they will get to know the politics of country and raise their  voice in making good to the governance of a country and if youth will be politically enlightened they will choose leaders who can take the country to a high and more democratic level.
So youth should and must take part in politics.
