Society Today

There is more the youth can do than complain and debate. There is an unavoidable need of action from the part of society that forms more than fifty percent of its population. With a new and young crowd comes a new generation of ideas. Given that it is assumed that the youth is ‘frivolous’ and ‘irresponsible’, “Society today” aims to give an insight into what the future of the country would actually do if they were seated in the parliament? How are they different from their predecessors? And what a generation gap can do and change for our country and the world?
