ADVERTISEMENTS:
1. Young people do not have maturity for thinking ; national affairs cannot be handled by the people who do not have experience. While handling national affairs, if a single mistake is committed it may push the country back by many hundred years. So building of the nation cannot be entrusted to inexperienced people that is the young.
2. Young people give too much premium to their own intelligence, they do not have the spirit of accommodation or the desire to reconcile. Hardened attitude towards one another will result in conflicts and conflicts can never allow us to make progress.
3. Young people are generally guided by wild ambitions which are far removed from the realities of life. That is why it is not possible to depend upon them because the world of dreams is completely different from the world of realities. A nation which is trying to pursue a mirage can never make any progress.
