On
the eve of the 66th Republic day, our reporters went around campus
and interacted with the students to see how much today’s youth knew about the
history of this day. Many questions were asked and the answers were tabulated.
The questions were basic ones like the name of the person who drafted India’s
constitution, the age of our constitution, and more.
We
got many answers and only one student was able to get all the answers correct.
There were a lot of funny responses amidst all the answers. Some people said
that Barack Obama is the 'Prime Minister' of the USA while some were unable to
tell us the age of our constitution.
As
the questions got serious, we got many good answers. Some believed that India
could not be called free unless we removed all the social and religious barriers
that exist in our society. They said that India could not call itself a free,
independent country unless the illiterate and the people living below the
poverty line could stand on their own two feet. The amount of violence against
women was another point most people talked about. There were another group of
people who felt that we should compare India with itself. They believed that as
a developing country, India will go through bad phases but we should have
belief in our country.
It
was heart-warming to see that today’s youth is concerned about India and we can
say that as long as we have such level of interest and patriotism, India has a
bright future ahead.
