They say Youths are future of the nation, I ask why not the Present !!! And in a country with percentage of Youthful population of
about 30% ( 20-40 years age group as per census 2068 BS), the Vitality of Youths is even high, especially when the country is
riddled and what we call "developing'.
It’s obvious that politics
influences every aspects and sphere of the society. The system of governance,
bureaucracy, law of the country etc is truly guided by the Polity of the
country. It not only shapes/influences the life that we are living at present
but to a many future in a manifold manner. When most of the People seem to give
a damn care to Politics, I am confused how they are pretending to avoid the
influence of this omnipresent and omnipotent force.
We Nepalese people over
the years have defined politics in a less intelligent way. Our seniors could
not give a priority to it and as a result it became full time occupation of
many incompetent, people who would make this country an ill-fated in a long
term. The state of Policy making was and is lagging behind and was often
parallel with just the functioning of the government. For an instance, Election
manifestos of the major political parties which has stated their vision for
development without depicting any means and resources. The struggle for power and
resources was what they practiced as Politics. And in a long run, such Power
hungry politicians led to the profound state of -corruption, mismanagement and
gave politics a bad name. Time and again when some idealistic leader appeared
in Nepalese political arena, they were shadowed, some suffered panic accidents,
some ill-disease and some were trapped by the power hungry politicians under
other country influences.
In many developed countries
the system ensures that they have their best guy involved in the politics. In
contrast to others, such people are able to focus on the future of the country
and envision the future of the country. Taking an instance of the politics of
the US, where most of the elected leaders are the alumni of the top-ratedUniversity. They establish a proven leadership and accountability before
joining into politics and thus are successful in a long term. In this context
student politics might seem to be important. Yes, Student politics is
prevailing in a competitive way. Though some significant work has been carried
out for the welfare of the students, we can figure out the wrong part very
easily. More than practicing leadership and Camaraderie, it is misused as
platform with access to undue influence in the colleges, practicing corruption
and as a political hatch-back of the top-notch politicians to overturn the
government, enforce strikes and so on.
As such politics as a
whole is lacking a serious concern and focus of the capable and educated
Youths. We keep saying on that system is corrupt and dirty but don’t produce
courage to clean the system, We keep showing the problems but not been able to
produce the solutions, we keep focusing on being good on our profession but
with no interest in the sector that guides all the profession, we keep escaping
from the problem and blame that the system doesn't get fixed by itself, and
what not!
