The foreign office is on an "outreach" mission as a new programme, SAMEEP , aims to take Indian foreign policy and its global engagements to students across the country. The ministry of external affairs has asked all its officers on leave to travel to their hometowns and particularly their alma mater. Their job would be to engage students in the schools and colleges in the jobs that the ministry is engaged in, so as to give them a fair idea of how India engages with the world, what are its foreign policy priorities and how diplomacy is actually conducted. The programme is voluntary and gives officials the option of going back to their alma mater or to any school or college in their hometown.

I also agree with his estimate that on an average about 30,000 people enter the job market every day. But, then, he says that 450 of them find jobs. If 450 do indeed find jobs then I'd like to add that many more - 12,500 -- were losing jobs. We know from the BSE-CMIE effort to measure unemployment that on a net basis jobs are being lost. It is the inference from India's largest household survey. 1.5 million jobs were lost in the first four months of 2017 and job losses have continued into the next four months as well. It is imperative that we pay attention to these results and find remedies to the problem. It is apparent that there is an attempt to brush aside the results of all surveys that point to a deteriorating jobs situation. This is counter-productive. The Labour Bureau's Quarterly Report on Employment Scenario was assailed for a small sample. But, the sample was raised from about 2,000 to 10,000 recently. The sample can always be raised further.

The value of a country is assessed not by the riches or assets it possesses, but by its people. A nation may be wealthy, but what’s more important than the actual wealth is the collective intellect and intelligence of the people who contributed towards earning that wealth. As you can see from this, wealthy nations can go to ruin if their newer generations are unable to keep pace with their forefathers and drive innovation and growth, and developing nations can boost their welfare with insightful planning and an enthusiastic youth. The youth of a nation determine how it shapes up a few years into the future; they are the future of the country, and their actions and inaction both contribute to the state of the nation. In developing and promising countries like India, the youth of the nation can contribute to its growth by: Exercising their franchise: India is proud of the fact that she is the world’s largest democracy, but if the country has to be governed properly, it...
