YOUTHS SHUN TRADE NEWS
CNA reached up to a number of young people to explain the problems that were important in the vote, but the majority of them chose not to appear on camera.
A 25-year-old woman who agreed to speak said it has become difficult for people to avoid taking things professionally.
” It’s uncomfortable, for absence of a better term. I believe it’s very difficult to convey because you never know how someone will interpret your judgment, Protiti Bhattacharya, a resident of New Delhi.
” When you have an opinion to convey, you ca n’t be sure that someone is going to listen to you, take whatever you’re saying in that moment, not personally”.
Due to this, many in her generation have switched to separate, net news portals because they believe they can report more widely and authoritatively on issues that young people care about.
Ms Protiti said that news stations are putting out better works, but with” no actual price”.
” I think the distinction between what an opinion is and what news is has only gotten completely confluent,” she continued.
In this vote, those who agreed to speak cited learning and culture change as pressing issues.
Mr Sparsh, a 27- yr- old people policy consultant, moreover pointed to how India is perceived on an intercontinental stage, along with inclusivity and what the government is doing for the poorest.
” ( Both ) the urban and rural youth are becoming a lot more sensitive to inclusive development”, said the New Delhi resident, who did not want his last name to be used.
Ms. Protiti stated that she prioritizes the work and climate crisis above both.
” The reason so many people voted for the BJP in 2014 was because of how popular they were,” they said. ( They said ) we will bring more employment opportunities back, etc. ( But ) that’s not happening”, she added.
