Why we need more younger politicians.

Politics is the fuel that every country heavily runs on. No country is complete without politics as it is a force that drives us. A slight change in the functioning and the whole of the country gets on the bandwagon of debates.

 In India especially, politics is considered as a religion and we take it very personally. Talking about politics is something people enjoy over a hot cup of tea in the morning or while going to work. It is like we are surrounded by politics everywhere and we also slip in the word in our daily conversations very casually. But if you look closely, it is only the elder population that takes deep interest in politics. What about the youth? Why are they not exposed to the world of politics? 

This is mainly because politics lacks the relatability quotient that is required to keep youngsters hooked. With a dominance of old people everywhere, the youth does not have someone they can call their own. There is nobody youngsters can relate to and call him their own. Hence, they distant themselves from the world of politics.

Today, India is in dire need of young faces. As we are majorly populated by youth, it is important that we have younger politicians coming into the scene. They will bring with them newer ideas and thoughts. This will benefit the country on many levels. If young politicians come onto the scene, they will definitely have a mass appeal. People will get motivated by them and this will lead to the development of the country as well. 

A fresh face with new and unique ideas is what is required for giving a boost to this country. Yes, we do have youth icons in politics, but they are only a handful. An increase in the number of young politicians will give rise to fresher ideas and newer thoughts. 

Those who have the desire in them are raw and unabashed. They will surely stand for what is right and vocally speak against what is wrong. We youngsters don’t stay quite on social issues and raise our voices for what is right. The usage of social media in youth is an added bonus for them to connect with the people. Communication becomes better and issues are rightly raised. So, there is a need of younger politicians in the country.

All in all, a young politician will bring out change and get a new perspective with him. He will definitely have a following and the country will become more advanced in its thought process.
