In 2004, 50% of the Indian population was aged 30 years or younger; however, only 35 out of 543 Lok Sabha members (6%) were aged under 35. Nevertheless, the World Values Survey showed that the proportion of people aged 18–24 who identified themselves as "very" or "rather" interested in politics was around 50, an increase of 15% since 1990. To make a difference in the longer term, it is essential that young people are engaged in formal political processes and have a say in formulating today’s and tomorrow’s politics. Inclusive political participation is not only a fundamental political and democratic right but also is crucial to building stable and peaceful societies and developing policies that respond to the specific needs of younger generations. For young people to be adequately represented in political institutions, processes, and decision-making, and in particular in elections, they must know their rights and be given the necessary knowledge and capacity to participate in a meaningful way at all levels... Our young voters should take utmost care to exercise their franchise in the best interests of the nation. The Election Commission is sincerely trying to get more citizens to participate in the democratic process. Educational institutions, NGOs and the corporate sector have also pitched in to encourage our young citizens to vote. For political systems to be representative, all parts of society must be included. When young people are disenfranchised or disengaged from political processes, a significant portion of the population has little or no voice or influence in decisions that affect group members’ lives. A key consequence is the undermining of political systems’ representativeness. ,#politics #politicstoday #raiseyourvoice #indianpolitics #indianpolitics #indianyouth #youthparticipation #youthinpolitics #speakupfordemocracy #politicalsciencestudent #politicalscience #politicalsciences #tiss #tatainstituteofsocialsciences #politicalcareer #careerinpolitics #ᴍᴀʀᴀᴛʜɪᴍᴜʟɢᴀ #political_science #studentsunion #politics_महाराष्ट्र #politicalanalysis #politicalmovement #why #how #politicalconversations #newsreporters #savethispost #sharethispost #🇮🇳india , https://www.instagram.com/p/CSq2t1stoLA/?utm_medium=tumblr
