65% youth population- Compliment or Crisis?

-


The country takes pride in having 65% of youth in its population with this being said at major ceremonies in and out of the country. Making this situation and number a wholesome credible thing to rejoice, what needs to be pondered upon first is whether the 65% youth population meant a compilement or a crisis.




There are steps in the right direction, such as the Indian government’s Start Up India initiative to boost entrepreneurship; the launch of the Skill India mission; the establishment of a dedicated Ministry of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship; the establishment of industry-led sector skills councils, and the overhaul of the Industrial Training Institutes.

 These pretty assets will be considerable only if executed and implemented well enough. With the MHRD constantly bringing many incentives for the students to grow, like the ‘Right to Knowledge’ campaign with free courses straight from the IITs, it is no doubt that the majority do not get a differential outcome. While that may not be the case in technical aspects, subjects which are dooming into the list of minorities are going unchecked infront of the priorities. Outdated or insignificant syllabus in school curriculum, schools lacking the basic needs of the students and all the weed at the ground level are unfortunately not being thought of. With as many as 900 government schools to be closed in Odisha, the mainstream national media chooses to ignore the subject just like it did after cyclone Fani hit the state.

 The modern youth at this tender age falls prey to many of the atrocities of the modern world such as unguided career choices, uncounselled degree courses and altogether on a large scale, it deems inefficient for the environment to feasibly grow. When such situation rises, it comes with its own side effects and aftermath.  Owing to this outcome in the workplace, many enthuisiastic employees readily go for job-switches around the industry of a largely populated zone. Cities like Chhenai and Bangalore heavily see this trend in the IT sector and stay prepared accordingly. Like the atrocities of the employed mass, the unemployed similarly see certain outcomes. Provoking by crime enthusiasts, politicians, and if nothing, then ultimate level of timepass is something degrading the environment of India in every possible way.

 With the huge employment and skill crisis, together with the newly proven to be disastrous- water crisis, create a huge impact globally when it comes to the way of life. Unfortunately, we cannot get back on a time machine and set things right, when population wasn’t much high, resources and manpower was enough to control the impeding dangers of scarcity, and most importantly division of lands claiming separate states and governance. Let’s enjoy life, have cake facials on birthdays, go to cinema on voting day, isolate young minds until they crack IIT/Medical, consume all sorts of depression followed by all sorts of drugs. Then we can stop debating on temples and mosques, make each a drug storage and pray Lord Pablo till the end of life. India always kept losing its rich heritage and there is no fix to it in the present scenario. Peace, pass me the liquor, such divine!

Writing through the engineering days

The scenery of rain drops slipping on the slides of leaves gives me nostalgia of my engineering days. It was 2015 when I took admission in an engineering college. Continual rain over the days had filled in all the low lying areas beside road leading from the main gate to the hostel. My father had just dropped me off at my newly, temporarily and partially owned property. One of the bed was unoccupied and in another, my senior roommate slept covering himself with blanket from top to bottom. My room was on fourth floor. It was drizzzling and through the sprinkled glasses of the window, I gazed at the hills on the other side. There were four of them in view, so I saw in them my family photo which hung up on the drawing room walls back at my hometown. The big ones were my parents ofcourse and the small ones- me and my brother. All my life I had remained secluded from friend circles but being alone in a new area of strangers where you don’t identify a ghost was a terrible feeling...

That first girl

-
Angelica- She was the first girl I had a crush on. Same height as mine, a divine combination of straight and curly hair extending till her waist, a black mole below her lower lip and a sea of smile on her face. There are infinite things I can describe about her, but I won't, or else you will fall in love with her. I met her at a friend's place in which both of us were invited. It was a marriage event. After all the processions were over and the bride, who was my friend's sister, left to the groom's place to spend a happy life ever after, I went to the roof of the hotel to puff few cigarettes before going to sleep. As the first puff exhausted to perish in the darkness of the night, there seemed to what can be called as a squealing tone. I moved forward towards the back of the water tank- a girl in her early 20s was sobbing bitterly. Sensing someone sit next to him, she tried to control holding back her tears but it was already too late. "Hey!", I said i...

GCEK Horror Stories CASE-1

The sky had a vast sea of clouds floating in it with the rays of sunbeams traversing in distinguished harmony through them. Me and my roommates, were having a casual walk around the campus. It was in the fresher year when people try hard to make selections for their life partners or friends with similar interests. We three belonged to the normal community of nothingness and mostly remained within our circle. It was around six in the evening and my roommates, both belonging to the same section, were reminded of the need to buy some stationery material from the town. They boarded the bus and I was left all alone.  Thinking about the lake behind the hostel, I made a quick decision to go to the spot. I had been there once before, for taking bath with my friends but in the evening, nobody would go there without purpose. So I made way through the little gap beneath the campus boundary and climbed upwards to the railway tracks and began walking slowly enjoying every cha...
